First time we had Mario at our event we were not sure what to expect but it exceeded all our expectations - his music was perfect, not too loud so you could still have conversation with your colleagues comfortably, but it did fill the background with lovely tunes and added a charm to our event, so without a second thought we invited him again the following year, and yet again, very happy! All arrangements with Mario are very simple and easy, all it takes is a couple of emails at the most. Looking forward to having Mario over again! More...

After my very first lesson with Mario I was hooked..... it was far beyond what I was expecting, I found it inspiring. He gave me confidence especially with the singing. Mario has a deep knowledge of music and is so happy to share all his knowledge, which is so great. It’s the highlight of my week now, I just can’t get enough. Rock On Mario 👍🏻 More...

Mario is an very experienced guitar teacher. A professional player that has great techniques for beginners. He has taught me basics of the guitar in a very smart easy to follow way. At each lesson I learn something new and at the same time I can clearly see my progress. It’s amazing how much I’ve learnt and can’t wait each week for my next lesson. Thank you Mario. More...

What inspired you to start your own business?
Love for music and arts in General...I have started playing an instrument from an early age so It was kind of natural progression to make it a profession.

Guitar lesson that gives Result in a short time !!!
My name is Mario and I am professional session musician, with over 25 years of experience in various styles. From Jazz, Manushe ,Latin and Spanish...to Rock, Pop and Blues.
I have played with lots of different instrumentalist and singers, witch gives me huge understanding when it comes to style, and taste, for incorporating a guitar lines with particular piece of music.
Teaching:
- rhythm
- harmony
- soloing
- technique
- helping in development of unique style
Also explaining the way to find:
- personal groove ( sense for rhythm pulsation )
- personal touch on your instrument (dynamics)
- understanding of recording, production and equipment.
- confidence and taste for musicality
I look every student individually... and then I find a best tailored solution for that student. If I have to go to students place it might be some petrol surcharge...not for Dublin distances, but for bigger ones.
Take look at my music at my two sound clouds:

Studio guitarist
