Danny Porter

My name is Danny and I been playing Guitar since the age of 7 years old. I started learning Classical Guitar and then progressed to Rock&Pop music in my teens. I enjoy all styles of music, mainly guitar based, but have a wide knowledge and understand of music and theory. I have been playing in live bands since the age of 11-12 which have been cover and original music. My original band ‘Burn The Headlines’ have done UK tours opening for the likes of Killswitch Engage, Sikth and Glamour of the Kill and our music is available to listen and watch on all streaming platforms like iTunes and YouTube. I am also a session guitar player and have recently performed for a country artist at festivals such as Latitude and First Light Festival. I also play Acoustic music with a singer and have had the privilege to perform at Wimbledon Centre Court for their 100th Anniversary celebrations, and also have been hired my car manufacturer McLaren and flown out to California in America to play at Pebble Beach Golf course for the unveiling of a hype car release. I also Offer Music Equipment advice, which can range from Guitar set ups to pedalboard builds and Guitar Repairs, but my true passion is teaching and am always looking for new techniques and ideas to help other musicians start learning or to continue their journey.
