What People are Saying
David’s systematic approach to teaching music theory is absolutely foundational for anyone wanting to grow in their musical abilities, whether a beginner or advanced. His comprehensive lessons on chord theory enabled me to be both creative and flexible in playing the piano & guitar and in writing my own music. They also provided the understanding I needed to “play by ear”, which I found to be an invaluable tool in my musical development. I appreciated that he tailored my lessons to suit my interests and skill level. I highly recommend David!

Hi, My name is David Southwick
I am a musician/songwriter with 25+ years experience playing both guitar and piano/keyboard. I have given private guitar and piano lessons for over 20 years, with students ranging from 5 to 65 years old. I teach pop, rock, country, folk, and worship music, customizing lessons to each student. I emphasize the simplicity of chord theory in both guitar and piano, helping students learn to play by ear.
I’ve been playing guitar since 1979 and piano and keyboards since 1985. I began teaching in the 1990s. I have played with worship teams since 1982 with Youth With A Mission and my local church. I also teach workshops in our community’s summer music festival.
I am married with five children, who play guitar, drums, violin and piano.
