I am a pro guitar player with 30 years' experience. I play in the US rock band One Eleven Heavy but am based here in Valencia, Spain.

I will take you through the basics of guitar playing - forming chord shapes, learning picking and strumming techniques, playing simple songs. Once we have a few basics down, I will start to take you through various scales and modes, enabling you to learn how guitar players construct chords and solos, all of which lead to the ability to write songs.

We can start at your level and work at your pace. Each and every learner has her/his own speed and style of learning and that will be fully taken into account. We can devise a programme of learning before you even pick up the guitar to practise. Ideally classes will take place in my home in Náquera, Valencia, as face-to-face work is much more conducive to achievement, but I am also available to educate online via Zoom/Teams.

I am not a Spanish speaker, so these classes are primarily for those who speak English. However, we can very likely proceed even if you don't speak English as music is, of course, universal.
Información adicional
Bring your own guitar, fully strung. Ideally electric.

Acerca de mí
Nick began playing guitar at the age of 13, studying at the Yamaha Music School in West Yorkshire, UK. He began playing professionally a few short years later. Today, he plays in the US-based psychedelic-country-rock band One Eleven Heavy.

His recorded work has been lauded by prominent publications such as The Wire, Mojo, Uncut, Shindig, and NPR amongst others. Nick's teaching style is laidback, friendly, student-centered and evenly paced.
