The Music Mission:
To unlock the world of music for anyone who feels the calling but gets stuck along the way.
Music for the rest of us.
Creating music can seem like magic. Like a secret language reserved for the chosen few who make it look effortless. Trust me, I know (I sometimes still feel this way).
As someone who now works as a professional guitarist, I actually came to music very late in life, and speaking frankly, I wasn’t naturally good at it. When I first picked up a guitar at 18, I couldn’t tell if one note was higher or lower in pitch than another. I couldn’t sing a note in tune and I had no family history of listening to much music at all. I was definitely at ground zero.
Fortunately for me, the one thing I came into this world with is an abundance of is persistence and passion. And luckily, it turns out that our brains are far more malleable than we often realise.
Today, I play guitar on massive stages around Australia and in the studio for Oscar-award-winning TV shows. I regularly think about the path I took to get here and wonder if a) I could have done it faster and b) how I can share what I have learned with others. My mission is to help you discover a faster path to unlocking the sounds in your head.
