I use some traditional books to learn from depending on the instrument and have also developed my own method and style of teaching over the years that has proved effective. I'm going to hopefully publish and market my teaching method some day;)
I enjoy teaching all ages and abilities, from 3 year old beginners, to seasoned professionals, to adult hobbyists. I am a patient, fun, thorough, flexible, and an imaginative teacher. I teach every style and genre from Jazz to Classical to Rock to Pop, Funk, Reggae, R&B and everything in between depending on the instrument. See below under Specialties for specifics. I can train and prepare you for any performance situation and teach you how to play what you want to play and more. I will create a lesson plan that is individualized to your needs and skill level. If you have ever seen the School of Rock, I have the same birthday as Jack Black and use some of that sort of motivation, maybe not as intense, but none the less it works. The lesson will fly by because it will be fun and in depth as you take a journey into your musical heart. After 3 to 6 months, depending on your level, you will be able to notice a significant improvement that you will feel confident about when reflecting back to where you were when we started.
Music is healing and therapeutic. I take a very emotional and spiritually charged approach to teaching and music. Energy and attitude are some of the most important things to maintain in a professional setting. Do you want to become a rock star or a professionally gigging and session musician or just a hobbisyt? I can make it happen!
BIO/PRESS:
Graham Czach (writer/vocals/bass) is originally from Chicago, now an LA-based singer/songwriter and multi-instrumentalist fusing modern and progressive rock sensibilities with pop-like hooks and socially conscious message-driven music. He is an original, wildly creative, and accomplished musician, composer, producer, upright/electric bassist, vocalist, and guitarist.
The Chicago Music Award Winner's 2010 debut album Lucid featured: Kris Myers (Umphrey's McGee) on drums plus brilliant artwork by album artist Jeff Jordan (The Mars Volta). The 2015 sophomore release, Star By Star EP has songs co-produced by Bjorn Thorsrud (Smashing Pumpkins), Manny Sanchez (Fall Out Boy), and Greg Magers (Lupe Fiasco). It garnered critical acclaim and was successfully funded through Kickstarter, raising almost $16,000.
Graham Czach has toured the United States extensively as well as other parts of the world with bands such as his solo project, Hey Champ, Chicago Afrobeat Project, AUDIODREAM, Goldford, Andrew Ripp, Chicago & LA Diamond Trio, Creedence Revived, and Secondhand Smoke. Graham has current endorsements with internationally recognized music companies - D'Addario, Eden Amps, Fender, Mono Cases, and Souldier Straps. Czach has also performed with the best in music and shared stages with notable artists Les Claypool, Big Head Todd, Ronnie Baker Brooks, Seun Kuti, The Wailers, Grammy Award winners Paul Wertico, Howard Levy, and many others. He recorded double bass on Grammy winner Lupe Fiasco's album L.A.S.E.R.S. as well as Saint Asonia’s debut album while working with producer Johnny K.
Graham currently resides in LA, where his passion and philosophy behind the music is to touch, unite, and make a difference in people's lives through the universal language of music. Especially in these dire times where corruption and lies rule the US government, Graham strives to bring about change for the better by writing and performing with his new protest rock band, Rebel Rampage. “I felt that resistance was absolutely necessary, and I made it my duty to fight this oppression with powerful music and inspirational words to transcend politics and inspire action. Rebel Rampage is the best way I can seek out truth and justice through music.”
“Graham Czach is already a music lifer…The album swings between polar extremes, morphing from guitar-heavy, prog-rock jams like “Hurry Up and Wait” into more tender fare like “True Love,” a Paul McCartney-esque ballad bathed in lush strings.” -Andy Downing, Chicago Tribune
"He's had a couple recordings out. I like this new one called 'Star by Star' very much, and I like this track the best(est). It's called "Full Moon". -Richard Milne (93XRT Chicago)
“…any guy who can sound like both Thom Yorke and David Gilmour is one vocally versatile dude…I can hear a lot of Muse and Radiohead.” -Peter’s Power Pop (AUS)
“This is one of the best new voices in music.” -Evigshed Magazine
"Like a modern Howard Jones meets David Bowie... Czach is a musical artist of the first order, blending modern and progessive styles with pop hooks..." - Power Popaholic
"...rich with atmospherically heavy tones and lush bass grooves." - Ghettoblaster Magazine
"Star By Star has a theme of escapist atmospheric music while dealing with real-world problems... a journey into space rock and braoched on the subject of death in the guise of astral elevations." - Examiner
