About Ben Allison
Hi!
My name is Ben. I have been playing for over 20 years and have taught for about 15. I have loads of experience playing live in some of the top venues in the UK including Brixton Academy, Shepherds Bush Empire, Birmingham NEC, Manchester Academy, The Kentish Town Forum, Glasgow SEC, Edinburgh SECC. I also have played at Download Festival and Reading Festival.
My style of teaching is laid back, starting with a few songs and then if they want, moving on to grades or harder ideas. I teach from beginner up to Grade 8 and beyond.
I studied at the Academy of Contemporary Music (ACM) so I’m comfortable with a wide range of styles. It’s worth noting, if you are interested in Jazz or Classical guitar I probably am not your best bet.
I also can help a lot with songwriting, I’m an active songwriter so I really enjoy the creative process as well.
if you are interested in group tuition, let me know. I will look at renting a space. I will be setting up grade specific groups to help students learn in a different environment which would be useful for some.
If you have any questions feel free to reach out and ask!

If you give me notice we can try and move your lesson around that week. It is quite tough because I have quite a full schedule and have gigs at the weekends but we can try and make it work.
