About your guitar teacher
I'm Jonah Brooks, a Chicago-based guitarist, producer, and multi-instrumentalist with over 15 years of experience. A 2017 finalist in the Wilson Center International Guitar Competition, I've studied jazz with Henry Johnson of the Ramsey Lewis Group, refining my skills in performance and composition. As the founder of Top Shelf Music Library, I've pioneered innovative sample packs, creating opportunities for musicians. With over 3 million solo artist streams and contributions to my band, One Car Garage, I specialize in indie, jazz, and lofi music. My personalized guitar lessons revolve around technique, creativity, and achieving each student's unique goals. From chord progressions to strumming techniques, I cover it all. Whether you're a beginner or looking to enhance your skills, I cater to school students, college-goers, adults, and professionals alike. Let's strum our way to mastery together!
