Jamey Andreas, Guitarist

Jamey Andreas is a classical guitarist based in New York, who has taught and played all styles of guitar for almost 30 years, his specialty being the Classical Guitar. In that time, he has developed teaching methods that are so effective and fundamental to all styles and levels of players, he has called them “The Principles of Correct Practice for Guitar”.

Through the use of these principles, anyone can learn to play the guitar correctly, from the beginning, so that bad habits and playing problems do not appear, as they do for so many guitarists and would be guitarists.

Likewise, longtime players can learn how to undo the bad habits they have unknowingly acquired over the years, bad habits that are preventing them from improving.

Jamey enjoys all styles of music from Rock to Classical. In 1997 he released a CD “Touched To My Tenderness” a collection of Guitar Classics, featuring Spanish Guitar Solos, as well as original arrangements of songs by the Beatles, Send in the Clowns, and Classical Gas.

In 1999, he published his revolutionary approach learning the guitar “The Principles of Correct Practice for Guitar”. It is now being used by players around the world, as they use the Understandings, Tools, and Foundation Exercises it contains to overcome the obstacles to development as a guitarist.

He has written original music for the guitar also, which he will be releasing soon.

In addition to being a performer and composer, Jamey is dedicated to helping other players become the guitarists they want to be, by teaching them how to use “The Principles of Correct Practice for Guitar”.
