My name is Gareth Somers. I am from Carmel. I have spent the last 15 years (post graduation) working as a musician (bassist, guitarist, arranger, composer, musical director). I have performed in groups ranging across almost all genres (pop, rock, blues, funk, alternative, jazz, hip-hop/soul, world) , and teach students of all ages and skill levels interested in learning more about music and mastering their instrument.
I have moved back to Carmel after spending the last 5 years in Asia performing and recording with their respective national recording artists, as well as teaching private lessons to aspiring musicians. Before that, I had spent time teaching in the northern Chicago suburbs, and performing with various artists in the Chicago area.
I currently teach at School of Rock in Carmel as well, but primarily from my home studio also conveniently located in Carmel (near the Monon Center). I currently have a few time slots available and am looking to take on students in the Indianapolis/Northside area who are looking for an experienced teacher and musical mentor to help guide and focus their skills as to improve on what they are looking for in their pursuit of music. I believe it is important to understand each students' individual preferences and goals in music, and to tailor their study to what fits them best. I pride myself in making lessons fun, while also teaching and instilling fundamentals which will guide one towards a lifetime of musical fulfillment.
I offer 30 minute ($20) and 1 hour sessions ($35). If you would like to learn more about myself and read reviews from my past and current clients, kindly visit this web address:
