About Luke
Hello! I'm a professional guitarist and Music graduate from Liverpool. I have worked as a session musician in the UK and overseas, and have been teaching for over ten years in schools, colleges, music academies, and universities all over the world. I have a BA in Music specialising in Performance & Composition, and a Diploma in Popular Music & Sound Technology. Since graduating I've travelled the world as a performing musician and have been lucky enough to share the stage with many incredible bands and musicians, including Snarky Puppy, Julian Maeso, and Martha High (of James Brown fame). My experience as a teacher includes work as a Senior Youth Leader for the British Arts Council, and peripatetic music teacher supporting the preparation of practical components of Music A-level, GCSE, and BTEC levels 2 & 3 in schools throughout North West England. I have extensive experience as a recording artist and composer; my credits include multi-award winning feature documentary My Big Break, 2009 (Best Documentary at the Boston Film Festival & Artsfest... nominated at Raindance, London), and Filmworker, 2018.

My classes are tailored towards each individual student's musical interests and goals. Beginners are of course always welcome, but I also teach more experienced players looking to improve in specific areas of their playing. I can teach you a range of styles (from blues to rock, jazz and beyond), covering essential techniques, as well as accompanying music theory, harmony, and aural skills. I regularly teach students who are preparing for exams as part of the Rockschool syllabus. I also help students familiarise with Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) technology, so that they may improve their proficiency when wishing to record at home. I also work with songwriters and guide them in relation to the development and exploration of their ideas. I offer a free 30-minute trial lesson where we can discuss your goals, musical interests, and what you expect to achieve from your lessons, so please don't hesitate to get in touch! Many thanks for looking, Luke

I've known Luke for about 15 years, since we first worked together in on the music for a film score. In 2017, along with David ben Shannon, he was credited for the film score on "Filmworker", the life story of Stanley Kubrick's right-hand man, Leon Vitali.
Luke is a very talented (and modest) musician. He plays guitar, keyboards, bass, drums, sings too, and is an accomplished music studio DAW engineer. He has engineered and published several very high quality multi-track, multi-video solo recordings where he performs every part.
He has been living in Spain these last 10 years or so, earning a living as a performing musician and as a music teacher. He has recently returned to live in the UK and is looking to attract new music students.
Luke is an inspiring teacher . Owing to his relaxed, easy manner and his deep understanding of music theory and performance skill, he makes each new step look easy and achievable to the student. He has good connections to other performing musicians and encourages his students to meet them, watch their live performances and broaden their own musical horizons.As a former student of Luke’s, I highly recommend him! He helped sharpen my technical abilities, expand my understanding of harmony and gave me confidence, all the while tailoring lessons to suit my particular creative endeavours as a songwriter. He’s patient, thoughtful and has a wealth of experience to pass on. A trustworthy tutor indeed.
One of the best working musicians I've known. I absolutely recommend him as a tutor. Luke will help you improve for sure.
Great tutor. Knowledgable and encouraging. I am on the road to becoming a better player.
