In Adam ’s Fayetteville studio, it’s about more than just learning chords. His lessons teach musical expression in a hands-on, energizing way that truly sticks.

Adam ’s lessons in West Salem were just right for my teenage son. He learned folk picking and how to express stories through music, which fits his acoustic style perfectly.
