Guitar Teacher Eastern Suburbs

Hi, my name is Harvey and I teach around the Eastern Suburbs of Sydney. I have played guitar for 6 years. I was the first student in NSW to achieve the grade 8 Rockschool exam and have also achieved grade 7 AMEB on violin. Having played violin for 13 years, guitar for 7 years, and bass guitar for 4 years, I am a well rounded musician. I’ve performed with various band at venues such as the Opera House, Manly Jazz Festival, Lazy Bones jazz club and many more. Currently, I am studying a bachelor of performance (jazz guitar) at the Sydney Conservatorium and are gigging in various bands.
