Guitar and Bass lessons! With the focus to enjoy the ride of learning.
Hello! My name is Leo and I am a professional musician based up in Glasgow. I have played music all my life hailing from a Jazz family upbringing, and now I am at the stage where I get to play amazing shows and enjoy all the beautiful parts of music. This has inspired me to become a teacher, which I started over a year ago now. I want to share the amazing parts of music with as many people as possible and I find teaching is a great way to do this. Everyone learns in a different ways, so I strive to personalise lessons to your specific needs and goals. I remember myself going through all the lessons and private tutors and sometimes finding it almost making things harder or putting me off, but I keep an open mind and relate to the reality and the core purpose of music, which is to connect with people and the world and allow yourself to be you.

Pop, Contemporary & Jazz Singing and Songwriting Lessons.
Training your voice can be incredibly rewarding. Singing has the power to move us emotionally, calm the nervous system, and help explore a range of emotions we don't get to explore with our voices day to day. Whether you're a starting out and looking to explore or needing to work on a deeper level with interpretation, technique, building strength in the voice, I can help in a number of different areas. I am trained in both classical and jazz technique and theory and hold a Bachelor in Jazz performance. I spent a large part of my singing career singing pop, RnB, folk and contemporary styles. I love to help people find their voice and can assist with songwriting techniques, arrangement, composition, music theory or music production. I studied at Berklee College of Music and taught song production and vocal styles at BIMM Berlin. I have a very colourful background as a professional singer and can help with auditions, exams, build up to a performance and much more. I am very good with all ages of students and am here to encourage you to find the best path for you on your singing journey!
