I teach using the http://www.registryofguitartutors.co.uk/ workbooks. You may enter exams,  accredited by The London College of Music, from Preliminary to Grade 8.     

Currently many students are progressing through the grades, all of which have passed first time with a distinction or merit.  

Alternatively you may study for your own amusement.

Please refer to the products pages for study and reference books. 

 

I have played professionally for a number of years and at the moment perform with one band;

 
Rough Diamonds are a Free and Bad Company tribute Band.

Honouring the music but in their own style. Hits include All Right Now and Can't Get Enough Of Your Love. The band have headlined the Newport Blues and Rock Festival and more recently The Shrewsbury Rock & Blues Festival. www.roughdiamondsltd.com

  

The Old Sew and Sews was a band put together to perform the new play written by Chris Eldon-Lee with Choregraphy from Maggie Love about the Silhouette factories in Shropshire.

From an idea by Nigel Hinton, the play opened at the Market Drayton Festival Theatre on Friday 13th & Saturday 14th  November and then ran for a week at The Severn Theatre in Shrewsbury from 16th. Another five shows were performed in 2010 on 28th February through to 4th March.  Further details are available at www.madeinshrewsbury.co.uk

 

As a professional session bass player Ian has performed with many artists from England on their recordings.

 

Beginners, Improvers or seasoned players of all ages are welcome.

 

Band advice on improvement in all aspects of their performance, finance, marketing, and management is available.

 

An enhanced CRB check is held and Ian is a member of the Musicians Union www.musiciansunion.org.uk

 

I look forward to helping you towards a rewarding musical experience.
