I want to give kudos to Brad. He’s been an amazing instructor this past year. I went into our lessons wanting to learn finger-style for bass and to discover the how to compose and improvise my own bass lines—I got all of that and more. There is still plenty to learn, but Brad has provided the foundation!

–Duff, age 54

Brad taught our daughter Jolie for over five years. Her growth on the guitar during that time with him was amazing. So was their rapport. He challenged her when she underestimated herself. He calmed her when she stressed. He took genuine pride in her accomplishments. She trusted him and she really enjoyed her time with him. Jolie is off at university now (with her guitar, hopefully finding the courage to play with and for other people). We miss having Brad around the house! We miss Jolie too.

–Mike, age 49

My son William has genuinely enjoyed learning guitar with Brad. His approach has made a real impact on him, and he's learned a ton in their sessions. Thanks for all your guidance and patience with William. Brad is amazing teacher, and we're grateful to have found such an inspiring music teacher.​

–Elizabeth, age 46

Brad was an awesome guitar teacher for my son! He was friendly, positive, engaging, flexible and motivating! Brad loves music and his enthusiasm for the guitar is contagious. He was beyond patient with my son and motivated him with his positivity and engaging humor. I highly recommend him!

Hi there!

Learning to play the music you love has never been more fun! I keep my lessons light, while empowering you through personalized lesson plans we build together. Whether your goal is to jam around the cottage campfire, write your own songs, or study sophisticated sheet music, you’ll be playing music that excites you in no time.

I’ve been playing the acoustic and electric guitar for 15 years. Teaching music has been my passion since 2015. I have studied with the brightest players in the Toronto music scene — Juno award winning guitarist Jocelyn Gould, musicologist Dr. Mike Daley Ph.D, Ted Quinlan, Trevor Giancolo, Nathan Hiltz, Brian Katz, and Lorne Lofsky are a few names of note.


When I'm not having fun with my students, I work as a recording artist under the moniker A Monkey's Wedding. Some of my favourite musicians are The Grateful Dead, Phil Spector, The Beach Boys, Phish, and Brian Eno.

See what I'm learning this week!
