LORI BAKER: Guitar, bass, piano, violin - in-person only

A multi-instrumentalist, Lori Baker plays electric violin, guitar and keyboard.  She loves helping students of all ages play that song they've been dying to play!  While living in Nashville, she sang jingles in studios and played in several bands.  Although trained classically, she now plays blues/rock with bands in the greater Kansas City area.

TANNER BEEGHLEY: Guitar and bass - in-person only

A predominantly electric guitarist based in Lawrence with over two decades experience, Tanner studied under Bangkok-based Italian Baroque and Classical guitarist, Dr. Jacopo Gianninoto, and has  done both session work and been involved in purpose-formed performing acts overseas. 

Tanner is open to teaching aspiring acoustic and/or electric guitarists of any skill level as well as bass students hoping to develop foundational skills. His methods, inspired by an eclectic international repertoire, embrace the raw, visceral spirit of the Blues, the subtle complexities and deliberate nature of Classical music, and the firepower that gives true Rock and Metal guitar their identity.
