Most of your favorite artists learned by ear before they learned to read music. That's where we start. With the music you love, and how to play it.
Lessons over video call, from wherever you are.
About.
Hi, I'm Conor. I'm a songwriter and guitarist based in Brooklyn. I like to approach every lesson the way I approach music, by listening first. The dream is to be able to pick up an instrument and play whatever you want with ease. It could be a tune that's stuck in your head, a favorite song of yours that's transported you, or maybe you'd like to write your own. We'll figure it out together.
I've spent years producing, recording, and writing my own songs. After graduating from music production school in LA, I worked in professional studios with analog equipment as well as digital audio workstations like Ableton and Logic Pro. If you're someone interested in learning how to record and produce, I can help.
