Learning with George Shelby
Whether you’re a working pro, a student, or a weekend player, we’ll start with what you want to do—and build from there.
“Wherever you’re at, I’m ready to meet you there”

One to one
Home studio · Zoom
My lessons are shaped around your goals. We can work on your playing, your stage presence, or what it takes to build a studio career.
Or maybe you just want to blow a hellacious 12-bar blues on the weekend. That’s a good reason to get together, too.
For your group
Schools · Colleges · Music stores
I bring the same energy to a clinic that I bring to a show, with practical ideas for players at every level.
From students exploring a music career to seasoned pros looking for a fresh perspective, the focus is on making music and finding something you can take back to your own playing.
Sharing the music
Photos and posters from past clinics, masterclasses, and performances.

Tell me a little about your playing—or the group you’d like me to work with.
I've been teaching lessons, clinics and hosting master classes for a long, long time. I have several levels I can teach, from helping pros find new facets in their music, showing high school and college students what's expected in a music career, or just fun tips for the beginner or weekend warrior. I'm not a fan of "dry" clinics, and try to bring the same energy that I do to any live show.
I do private lessons both in my home studio and via Zoom. My goal is to get my students to the goals they have in mind, not some random set in stone method. You may be looking to enhance your live performance and stage presence. You may want to work on a successful studio career. You might want to just blow a hellacious 12 bar blues on the weekend. Wherever you’re at, I’m ready to meet you there.
