ABOUT THE INSTRUCTORS
Andy Rumsey (left)
After witnessing firsthand the energy of a live rock-and-roll concert, it was a short jump for Andy from listening to songs to playing songs to then writing his own. Since then, Andy earned a degree in audio engineering, developed a background in music theory, and built up 15 years of live performance and studio experience.
Jason Perry (right)
As a music educator, Jason believes his primary duty is to cultivate passion, joy, and comprehension for each student’s musical journey. Jason has been teaching guitar and voice students over the last seven years and has ample experience playing in a variety of bands.
With backgrounds rich in musical expertise and teaching, Andy and Jason are here to guide you through the wonders of music education.
