Learn Guitar with Paul

πŸ’°$31 weekly lessons

Music has been my language for over two decades, and as a touring artist and studio artist. I have played in the band Stone Cold Outlaw which was a well known band in the local Chicago scene and beyond. Opening for many major artists including members of Disturbed, Tracii Gunns of LA Guns, Skid Row, Warrant, Tantric, as well as many others. I am also an award nominated artist for Best Rock Musician in Chicago by The Chicago Independent Music Organization. I have also worked with many artists such as The Last Vegas and pop artist Laura Victoria. I've experienced the transformative power of guitar firsthand. Let's unlock your musical potential together – it's never too late to embark on a fulfilling musical journey.
