"Nate makes learning guitar so much fun! His understanding of the instrument, techniques, musical styles, and applying ideas to songs are very helpful and have made playing and listening to music inspiring.”

I’ve been a working musician and instructor for over 25 years, teaching guitar, bass, piano, and music theory across a wide range of styles. While I specialize in Gypsy Jazz and advanced jazz theory, I’m also fluent in the genres most students want to learn — from blues, rock, R&B, and neo-soul to gospel, worship, and modern Christian music. For guitar, I teach everything from improvisation and theory to authentic Gypsy picking technique. On bass, I focus especially on gospel and pocket playing, building solid groove and feel. On piano, I cover jazz harmony, gospel voicings (including four-way close / locked hands), and neo-soul textures. I help students bridge the gap between theory and sound — learning how to express what they hear in their heads, not just memorize shapes or scales. Whether you read standard notation or just tab, I break things down in a way that makes sense and connects directly to the music you want to play. Beyond technical skill, I teach from experience — through years of real struggle, personal transformation, and the realization that music can be a true form of freedom. I’m here to help you grow not just as a player, but as an artist
