William Kraemer

Hello my name is William,
I’m a guitarist and a sound engineer from Paris based in Glastonbury, and i can propose guitar lessons, electric and acoustic, and bass. Beginners are welcome 🙂.

A bit of my background:

I started to listen to rock music at a very young age, bands such as the rolling stones, the beatles, led zeppelin and deep purple and i began studying the guitar at 11. I then quickly tried to play in bands as much as possible, covering some classic rock with some friends in my town in Paris suburb. I played in quite a few bands in my 20s. In my late 20s i was working in a record shop in Paris which opened me a lot to different genres, which made me decide to go to the american school of modern music to study Jazz music and harmony in Paris for 2 years. I moved to Glastonbury from Paris 5 years ago and i play in a band in Glastonbury, and perform in the area.

About my lessons:

I adapt my lessons and the teaching to what my students want to learn, more theory oriented or less according to the person. You can propose me a couple of songs that we can study, so it s about the genre and the guitar styles you want to develop. I make sure the learning process is playful and always take time to explain forthcoming bits of complexity to overcome when they occur.
I try to get beginners to manage playing a whole song as soon as possible and get into improvisation too
As well, I can help you build and develop your technique as well as your own style.
Best regards.
Will
