Starting his musical journey at 14, Liam immediately found himself swayed with passion for the instrument, having not put his guitar down since. That passion has led him to develop a taste for a multitude of genres, varying from rock and metal to the blues, jazz and, even pop!
Experience
He boasts a wide stretch of musical endeavours. Liam started supporting local bands, before studying at Box Hill Institute, where he was a part of the afrobeat and soul lab ensembles there. Nowadays, Liam works with the Adrenaline Music Group, where he composes entrance music for local professional wrestlers.
Everything he does comes with passion, and he brings that vibrancy with him to his teaching.
Teaching Style
Liam's classes include teaching both the method and the theory, assuring that his students can leave the class with a good grasp on how to read sheet music too. He's a very dedicated educator, assuring that each lesson is curated specifically for his students' needs. As each class is curated around fun, Liam takes a more personal approach, taking onboard their interests to deliver a class that is both a lesson and an experience. He strives to make sure his students leave class feeling rewarded.
To him, music is joy - and he wants to teach that and encourage it in his students.

Bass Guitar Lessons FAQ
Is the bass guitar the easiest instrument to learn?
The bass instrument calls for a unique set of skills and expertise. In this sense, the bass is not always simpler to learn than the electric guitar. Just stick to bass if you're not guitar-talented. There is some overlap between this and the previous urban legend.
Is bass guitar easier than piano?
Unlike the piano, guitar, or drums, learning an instrument and being proficient at playing it takes a lot less time. This is because, while pianists and guitarists typically play three-note chords simultaneously, bassists typically only play the root notes individually.
Can a guitarist play bass easily?
Is it difficult to switch from guitar to bass? Switching from guitar to bass isn't difficult because many of the same techniques and skills are used. Most guitarists don't have much trouble switching to bass once they've mastered the guitar.
What makes a good bassist?
A good bass player usually acts as a link between the drummer and the rest of the band to achieve this goal. Time, tone, and emotion are more important than anything else. They produce an appropriate tone, and their volume either matches or complements that of the drummer and kick drum.
