Bio: Greetings! I'm Andrew, a guitarist and educator originally from New Orleans, LA. I began playing professionally in high school performing around New Orleans at many venues and festivals including Tipitina's, House of Blues, Snug Harbor, and the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival. After graduating from NOCCA in 2008, I studied Jazz Performance and Film Scoring at Berklee College of Music on a scholarship, graduating in 2012. Since then, I’ve performed internationally at major festivals and built a professional career in New Orleans, Boston, and New York City. Performances include Blue Note NYC, Billboard Tokyo, Blue Note Nagoya, Jazz Standard NYC, and festivals including Marciac, Panama, Monterey, Puerto Rico, Newport, and Park City Jazz Festivals to name a few. Over the years I’ve studied with world-class musicians such as guitarists Hank Mackie, Davy Mooney, Brian Seeger, Mick Goodrick, as well as other instrumentalists such as pianists Danilo Pérez and Michael Pellera, saxophonists Joe Lovano, David Liebman, drummer Terri Lyne Carrington and more. I draw influence from artists ranging from Jimi Hendrix and Stevie Ray Vaughan to Pat Metheny, John Scofield, Charlie Hunter, Toninho Horta, and countless others. As an instructor, I began teaching other kids in my hometown and high school when I was 15 and I never stopped. I work with guitarists at every level—from beginners learning fundamentals to advanced players refining their artistry. My specialties include jazz, blues, rock, funk, R&B, folk, country, and Latin styles, as well as improvisation, chord melody, 7-string jazz guitar, music theory, and recording. My approach balances technical discipline with musical creativity, helping students develop not just skills, but a deeper understanding of the guitar and music as a whole.
