If you’re looking for someone to teach you the ‘soul’ of playing guitar then look no further. Owen gave me more every lesson than I could ever give him credit for. He captured what I needed to succeed as a guitarist in about 2 minutes, he nurtured my playing and directed me where nobody had before. I gained more than a guitar lesson, I gained expression and thought, to this day his guidance is present in every note I play. I humbly thank him for everything he is. More...

Owen deacon has been my, singing teacher for a number of years and has helped me progress from an amateur singer to a professional one.
He has encouraged and believed in me, even when I doubted myself and he is always available if I have any questions; whether it’s about the lesson, my progress or even a general question about music itself.
He is reliable, reasonable and is a fountain of knowledge regardless of music genres etc.
I look forward to our continuous work to together and I thank him for the previous work he has already put in

What do you love most about your job?
When I first stated to play the guitar, I found that there were many schools of thought, concerning methods. It becomes complicated, and I believe, in those early years, my playing suffered. What I really love about this job is seeing new guitar players discover the instrument, without the maze of choice, of books and learning techniques, that bogs down the learner. I love to see when the new player settles with his/her instrument, and then the real joy of playing kicks in, but the ultimate joy of doing this work, is seeing the growth of the new guitarist, into a confident, expressive and creative player.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I have been blessed in my musical walk. I have sung in a choir, played in my first band at the age of 11, Played trombone in a local brass band, and more recently, I've been involved in Gospel music, and providing Praise and worship in local churches. Through my work with the Church, I have always been encouraged to use my gift to help others, So I began saying yes to anyone who asked me to help. one thing lead to another. The rest, as they say, is history.
Why should our clients choose you?
I take great pride in what I do, and I am patient. most of all, I love to see results. I'm here to help you to realise the journey, and assist you every step of the way.
