As we look for the best players to be Rock House instructors we also look for musicians that are teachers with commanding communication skills. Not every great player is a great teacher. It is another skill set to be able to present information in a fun and exciting manor. Shawn encompasses both aspects; in addition to being a top-level musician his colorful personality makes it fun to learn. Another one of Shawn’s great assets is the number of instruments he is a master at. The list includes, guitar, bass, piano, violin, upright bass, ukulele, mandolin and drums just to name some.
