Meet Shane

Shane is a classical guitarist currently pursuing a doctor of music degree at Indiana University Jacobs School of Music. Prior to his classical study, Shane played electric guitar for many years. What Shane finds unique about his abilities as a performer and educator is his ability to take the skills and expertise that have been developed through years of rigorous classical music study, and apply them to popular styles of music. The pathway to developing as a musician and guitarist is the same whether you are plucking with your fingers on nylon strings, or using a pick on steel strings. Shane has the experience and knowledge to help you take your playing and understanding of music to the next level.

Services

Guitar Lessons

Shane teaches both classical guitar as well as popular styles including rock, metal, folk, and blues. His classical training is not a limiting factor in his ability to teach these styles, rather, it is an advantage that sets him apart from the teachers at your local music shop.

Concerts

Book Shane for concerts and events featuring a wide array of repertoire, including music for classical and electric guitar.

Wedding Concert Special

Classical guitar is a rising option for many happy couples wishing to upgrade their special day for a fraction of the price of hiring an entire band or string quartet. Classical guitar has all the beauty of a string quartet with an increased sense of intimacy, perfect for walking down the aisle and cocktail hour after the ceremony. Contact Shane for rates!

Enroll for a musical journey

Guitar lessons are tailored to the individual, and direction of study is based on what YOU want to explore. Classical guitar and electric guitar have their differences, but the process for learning them is more similar than some may think. In lessons with Shane, you will develop the skills and knowledge to become your own teacher and take control of your own musical trajectory.

Shane focuses on establishing healthy and efficient technical habits through the practice of both technique drills and selected repertoire appropriate to the student’s level. He also focuses on developing practice strategies toward the goal of efficiency and productivity in the practice room, leading to as much improvement as much as possible in as little time as possible.

In lessons with Shane, you will not only receive detailed practice plans, handwritten exercises, and lesson notes, but also an attention to detail that is personal to your goals as a musician. This ensures that Shane’s students are able to take the skills and tools learned in lessons and apply them in their own artistic endeavors, freeing them from a reliance on a teacher as a means of achieving improvement.
