Learn from Great Strings Teachers

Hi , my name is Simon and I've been teaching guitar for 20 years. I was highly influenced by a private music teacher I had when I was 16 who propelled me to complete an Associates degree in music in Australia. I moved to the states around 2007 and lived in the Philadelphia/NJ area up until 3 years ago when my wife and I moved to Washington state.

I have studied with many of the leading teachers in Europe and the USA. I started my education at Junior Department of the Royal Academy of Music (London), where I studied with James Sleigh for five years. As a teenager, I was a member of the National Youth Orchestra of Great Britain, and the National Youth Strings Academy.

What's up! I’m a guitarist and bassist with over 20 years of playing experience and a deep love for music that’s both powerful and personal. I'm a founding member of Saticöy, an alt-rock/punk band based in Los Angeles that blends high-energy drive with emotional depth and catchy songwriting.
