Hi my name is Nathan and I have been playing guitar for 20 plus years. The beginning of my music journey started in the 3rd grade when I began playing the violin.

I believe that the best music lessons teach far more than just how to play an instrument. For over 12 years, I have been teaching students of all ages the art of creativity - where technical skill, dynamics, ear knowledge, and the ability to "feel" what you play all combine into one lesson.

I have been teaching lessons full time for a living since 1987. Over that time span, I have learned so so much in my lessons. My basic vibe is, I am learning new things constantly, for example, I learned Paul Gilbert's Fuzz Universe and taught it to one of my students. No easy task for any player! I spent 12 years as a serious Spanish Classical player.

Ward Williams, cellist, guitarist, vocalist, and composer, grew up in Winston Salem, North Carolina. At the age of 11, he discovered MTV and, consequently, the love of rock and roll music. His love of MTV faded (due in part to such betrayals as The Jersey Shore), but his love of rock and roll continued (in spite of such betrayals as Staind).

I was born in 1991 and have been immersed in music since childhood. Growing up with a musician father, I attended my very first concert, Scorpions, at just six years old. I picked up the guitar at 14, and for over 20 years now, I've been shaping a unique, expressive and versatile style. Entirely self-taught, I'm driven purely by passion.
