Thank You
Whether you’re a friend, family member, current or previous student - or casual passer-by: Thank you for sparing the time to find out what I'm up to :0)
This page is an invitation to join my Patreon community. As a friend or family member, you may well join Tier1 simply to support me and as such, I’m deeply grateful for your support!
To be perfectly honest, even if you only sign up for free - it will make my day! I jest not - if the numbers go up by one I do a happy dance :D
For the price of one coffee or beer you get to make my day AND gain access to new live performances every week, in addition to exclusive content which I post on Patreon.
If you're a guitarist you might be interested in my affordable, weekly masterclasses - which work out at under £3:20 per hour if you attend them all!
Further details below, or simply:
What is Patreon & why should I care?
If you have little or no idea what Patreon is - here's a short video titled:
“What is Patreon and how does it work?”
The truth is, I need your support to keep exploring, creating and sharing my music!
Choose from 3 tiers of support on Patreon
Tier One: for Music Lovers
Tier one is for people who want to support my musical journey with the cost-equivelent of a coffee or a beer once a month and / or folks who actually enjoy the music I make…
Yup - some people do…. no-one more surprised than me!
Tier1 benefits include access to a password-protected library of performances; with new music added every single week; available to listen to online or for download as MP3s.
This is an example of what I do…D.I.Festy is an imaginery little creature that appears at music festivals. He searches out people who are not enjoying themselves and dances until they do.
Tier Two: for Music Makers
Tier2 is for guitarists who want to improve their ability to make stuff up, improvise over stuff that's made up, and understand stuff they made up.
I appreciate that some people can't afford my hourly rates and that is partly what led to my running these weekly, 2hr Masterclasses. I run them every Wednesday evening from 7 - 9pm GMT, using Skype. Each masterclass is a standalone event; so you can engage with as many or as few as suits your preferences and availability.
Each week I analyse one of my compositions; teaching you what and why, in addition to discussing how to improvise over the piece.
You can lurk in the background, fully engage and ask questions, or anything in between. I include time for questions on any and all aspects of playing guitar. I want to help you with whatever you need in order to progress your playing.
Tier2 benefits include access to jam tracks within the password protected area of this site, in addition to the weekly masterclasses and member-only posts.
