Teaching Stuff...
Check out: www.Cottonstudio.info.
Take a look at my webpage!
My name is Jeremy...I have been playing for years. I received a degree in Music from the University of Akron in 1996 and have done grad work in music education at Bowling Green State University.
I teach 40-50 students a week on several different instruments, exclusively at The Musical Arts Center -check it out! My students range from about 4 years old to about 65- it's a great experience for everyone. I have taught private lessons for about 17 years now, and at the arts center for the past 9 or so.
I am now taking students!

Playing Stuff...
I play jazz around town solo or with various size combos, I rock/ funk out at least once a week with Big Whiskey, do the soul/ jazz thing with Throwback Jack, and play weekly in the worship bands at Journey Church in Union KY. If you happen to be in the area, come and check it out! I'm playing a custom made strat for most things, a custom Jarrett guitar for jazz stuff, and I am working on customizing an Epiphone Sheraton. On bass with Big Whiskey I use a Fender "Zone" bass. The guitars go through a zoom pedalboard direct into the board on church gigs, into various pedals and a ZT Lunchbox amp on rock/ funk gigs, or direct into a Jazzkat on jazz gigs. The bass goes through a Carvin combo.
