About Kevin
I have over 35 years’ experience teaching both guitar and bass with a proven success rate of students of all ages and ability levels. My own musical expertise has developed from playing with a plethora of professional bands on gigs, tours and recording sessions since 1971 (see list). Such broad expertise enables me to offer learning experiences that are finely tuned to the precise needs of the individual I have worked with over 300 students of all abilities to build on each of their playing skills. Lessons are conducted in a private, fully equipped studio based in Ore, Hastings.

Styles With my support you can learn a variety of styles that I am able to teach: rock, pop, blues, country, funk, fusion, jazz, soul, reggae, ska, Latin, folk, bluegrass, klezmer. Levels Music levels will be taught to suit the individual: Bass guitar – beginners / intermediate / advanced Electric or acoustic guitar – beginners / intermediate Exams Working towards a national music exam encourages the development of musical skills, knowledge and understanding, providing the foundation musical qualifications and a love of music. I can help students progress towards all exam levels up to Grade 8 on either bass or guitar. In this way, a number of my students have gained access to higher education courses and progressed onto subsequent musical careers. Are you a beginner? Starting to play is the most difficult challenge to overcome, fraught with challenges that cause many to waste their time and give up within weeks. This can be avoided with my lessons as they will give you personalised, professional guidance right from the start. With time, practice and my tailored support you can set off on your musical journey confident you have full understanding and the appropriate techniques. Having a personalised teacher will enable you to develop an excellent understanding of harmony, rhythm, melody and essential theory. “I enjoy the challenges that my students bring to the lessons. Some may have a good technique but a very poor understanding of rhythm and theory, or poor technique with a good sense of rhythm. It is my job as a tutor to ‘fill the gaps’ in their knowledge and skills whilst at the same time building on their strengths and interests. For example, I can help those students with no sense of rhythm to actually ‘play in time’; rhythm isn’t magic – it’s counting!” Intermediate / My vast wealth of experience of many music formats makes me ideally placed to aid musicians who are already established. I have a unique ability to and analyse a player’s techniques, strengths and weaknesses. This enables musicians to further develop their skills and perform at more advanced levels. So whether it is a particular piece that needs to be learned, an audition that needs preparation or a general improvement in skill required, the experienced player will always benefit from time spent in my studio.
Recommendations
Recommendations come from relatives, friends and acquaintances of the teacher
First of all, Kevin is a very accomplished, professional bass player in his own right, playing in a variety of musical styles. When learning the music for the shows he does, his dedication to his playing shines through as he does the necessary "homework". He can pass on his deep musical knowledge for all levels of players from beginners to more experienced players in need of a "brush-up". He is a patient tutor and his lessons are always well organised and pitched at the right level for each particular student. I thoroughly recommend Kevin.
Kevin has a vast experience of playing at professional levels in a wide range of contexts. More importantly, he is very skilful with his ability to sympathetically support the learner. He ensures that players fully understand the context of what they are learning.
