Who I Am & Where I Live

  • Name: Rob Garland
  • City: Los Angeles, California
  • Country: United States

My Life & Work

  • Bio: Growing up in England I worked in a diverse array of bands and performed on the London college circuit. Later I played hundreds of gigs at festivals (The Big Muddy Blues Festival, Blues In The District, Washington Blues, etc). and at clubs around the U.S. with my group, Rob Garland & The Blue Monks, opening for artists such as B.B. King, Chuck Berry and Booker T. The band attained airplay on international radio and T.V. stations.

    ​I graduated from Christ Church College in the U.K. with a Bachelor’s degree in Music/Radio Film & Television. After moving to the U.S. I studied with jazz great Jimmy Bruno.

    Since being featured in guitar magazines, (Guitarist, Guitar One, Premier Guitar, etc), my first instructional book was published by Cherry Lane in 2007 which led to a wonderful relationship with TrueFire where currently I run an artist channel (Babylon), write articles for RIFF Journal, host live YouTube sessions and create instructional courses, such as the best selling Chord Navigator: CAGED series.

    I've been a guitar teacher for over 25 years and am very proud to be part of the faculty at Musicians Institute, in Hollywood, CA. I also teach private lessons from my home in L.A. via Zoom/Skype.

    Currently I play gigs with jazz/funk band Catatonic and my jazz rock group Rob Garland's Eclectic Trio at venues such as The Baked Potato, Vitello's, Alva's Showroom and The Mint. I've performed sessions at Los Angeles studios such as Revolver and The Village Recorder and co-written music for Bad Robot.

    I love writing, recording and releasing my original music ranging in genre from jazz/rock instrumental to acoustic vocal folk, which can be streamed on Spotify or downloaded on iTunes as well as numerous other digital platforms.

    In September 2018 I was honoured to perform and jam with legendary guitarist Steve Vai at the 'Big Mama-Jama Jamathon' in Hollywood, CA.

    Some of the amazing musicians I've worked with include Jimmy Haslip (The Yellowjackets), Andy Sanesi (Scott Henderson), Tony Newton (Gary Moore), Mick Stevens (Brand X) and Gus Thornton (Albert King).

    Endorsements include the wonderful folks at Bogner amplification, Xotic guitars, Curt Mangan strings, Chicken Picks and Moody Leather Straps.

    ​I love all different genres of music and am influenced by everyone from Joni Mitchell to Frank Zappa, via Prince and Black Sabbath! My favourite guitar players growing up were Gary Moore, Brian May and Steve Lukather.

    ​Blimey that was a bit long!

    If you made it this far, thanks for reading,
    Rob

My Instruction

  • Lessons/Workshops: "I studied guitar under Rob's guidance for a little over three years, covering a wide range of styles. After studying guitar for 20+ years with nearly as many instructors, Rob clearly stands out to me as the best guitar teacher I have ever had. There are three things that set Rob and his teaching apart:

    1) Incredible depth of knowledge on his instrument that he can apply musically to any style-We covered techniques and musical approaches to rock, jazz, blues, country, pop, fusion and everything in between- Rob's one of those players who not only plays nearly any style, but can teach them too and will have new information integrated quickly into your playing in a very musical way.

    2) A kind, patient and positive teaching approach-Rob seems to know just when to push you, when to encourage you, and has an ability to quickly see where you playing needs improvement and lays out a clear plan to take you to the next level.

    3) A teaching method that emphasizes applying what he teaches you to your own music so you are using it to express your music with the new concepts as quickly as possible- In my opinion, this is the key characteristic of Rob's teaching that truly separates him from the very good instructors and puts him on another level. Whether the idea is basic and fundamental, or a heady advanced concept, Rob always gives you a clear plan to integrate the concepts into your playing and has you applying them in very musical context immediately. My studies with Rob have done more to advance my playing than most instructors efforts combined."

    - Manley Feinberg II, Motivational Speaker, Vertical Horizons

    "I have hired and fired A LOT of guitar instructors. Signing up for Rob's classroom was, in my opinion, going to be another waste of time where the instructor had this long drawn out method designed to impact your wallet more than your playing skill. The TrueFire risk-free guarantee made me at least want to try it. Within the 1st two lessons, I was hooked. Rob is taking a two pronged approach - rhythm and lead.

    The first rhythm question began to tighten up my comping and understanding of rhythm, while the approach to playing lead has helped me develop my style. At the end of the day, I don't sound like Rob, I sound like the player I want to be. Robs responses always incorporate what I'm trying to do, and some ideas on how to get there.

    I highly recommend this class. Rob's passion for music, desire to teach, and encouraging attitude has really helped me grow in a short time... I can't wait to see where I will be a year from now!"

    - Dwane Woodard · Alabama Agricultural and Mechanical University

    "Rob is an excellent teacher and is very strength based in his approach. He identifies the things you are doing well and gives easy to understand suggestions for improvement. He really encourages and helps you to grow as a player. I've made more progress in the few months I have been with Rob than in the year and a half spent trying to do it alone buying instructional DVD's and using YouTube. Rob is very accessible and I feel I am getting much more than if I was taking weekly lessons.

    I highly recommend Rob as a teacher, he is very knowledgeable and can play all styles of music. I gave Rob a "test drive" by taking his Beyond the Pentatonic Scales workshop and couldn't wait to sign up for his class. Do it you won't regret it!"

    - Ray Gallagher · Retired. Northern California

    "Rob is great. He did a great job of quickly analyzing where I was on my playing, and developing a Lesson Plan specifically for me. It is incredible that I can actually understand why I am learning something instead of just learning it. Each lesson builds on the prior and you can really see your progress. And, if you have taken face to face lessons in the past and were wondering if this method works.

    I can tell you that it is the only way. Instead of once a week, this goes at your pace. I have actually gotten responses to my video submissions within a couple hours. Other times, I have been busy, and can make progress on my lesson after a few days of not reviewing. Rob is a great talent, and a great teacher. And...he is a great guy. Sign up now."

    - Scott Marx · James Madison University

    "I studied with Rob Garland for approximately 2 years. Rob’s lesson plans are organized and formatted to first present the student to music theory and second, apply the theory using songs or backing tracks. His well rounded approach gives the student real world application and allows them to not only develop improvisation skills, but also understand song structure and provide ideas for being a better rhythm guitar player. Rob focuses on the student’s goals and plans future lessons to develop the student’s musical ability and skills.

    My previous teachers only wanted to teach me songs and did not have a plan to help me achieve my goals. The teacher’s role should be guiding, instructing, developing and challenging the student, and that is what I found when taking lessons from Rob. Rob has the rare blend of not only being an exceptional, patient teacher, but a talented working musician who likes to share his knowledge.

    I highly recommend studying with him if you get the opportunity."

The world's artistry via giant steps through a matrix based in the phenomenon placing most of the 7.8 billion of us within 6 or fewer degrees — steps — of each other ...

 

... a project conceived and built in the fertile, fecund and atavistic ground zero of Bahia, Brazil initially for the discoverability of this singular region's dispossessed genius.

 

All explained in the window immediately below. Followed — beneath this window — by scores of magnificent artists, each leading to myriads more artists/categories. Inside this window also  may be found our Brazilian record store radio, named by British journal The Guardian as one of 10 of the Best Radio Stations Around the World!

 

IF YOU CAN'T STAND THE HEAT

 

Brazil is not a European nation. It's not a North American nation. It's not an East Asian nation. It straddles -- jungle and desert and dense urban centers -- both the equator and the Tropic of Capricorn. It absorbed over ten times the number of African slaves taken to the United States of America, and much of its aboriginal population was absorbed into the general population-at-large. Its people have lived under oligarchy, plutocracy, dictatorships and massive corruption, with elements of these still strongly entrenched today.

 

But!

 

Brazil has buzz...not the shallow buzz of a fashionable moment...but the deep buzz of a population which in spite of -- or perhaps because of -- the tough slog through life they've been allotted by humanity's dregs-in-fine-linen, have chosen not to simply pull themselves along but to lift their voices in song and their bodies in dance...to eat well and converse well and much and to wring the joy out of the day-to-day happenings and small pleasures of life which are so often set aside or ignored in the European, North American, and East Asian nations.

 

For this Brazil has a genius perhaps unparalleled in all other countries and societies, a genius which thrives alongside peeling paint and holes in the streets and roads, under bad organization by the powers-that-be, both civil and governmental, under a constant rain of societal indignities...

 

Which is all to say that if you don't know Brazil and you're expecting any semblance of order, progress and light, you will certainly find the light! And the buzz of a people who for generations have responded to privation at many different levels by somehow rising above it all.

 

Raimundo Sodré, in a conversation ranging through New Orleans and Harlem and the South Side of Chicago ... and Appalachia and Irish villages and Russian shtetls and the unofficial symbol of Brazil's Bahian-born national music (the pandeiro) almost certainly having arrived in Brazil in the hands of Sephardic Jews (including conversos) fleeing the Inquisition, once remarked: "Where there's misery, there's music!"

 

A pandeirista on the roof. And it's not just music. And it's not just Brazil.
