Chris O'Leary
Hi, I'm Chris O'Leary, a professional Music Teacher, Singer and Musician with over 20 years experience, based in Swindon, UK. One of my passions other than performing is passing on the knowledge that I have accumulated from being on tour, at music university and being a working professional musician.

Teaching gives me this opportunity to use my experience to help others achieve. If you want to find out more please contact me here. I offer private one-to-one music lessons at my studio in Swindon, Wiltshire or via video chat from the comfort of your own home. Each session is tailored towards your ability and what you want to learn as a student of the arts, be it, learning your favourite song or taking your grades.
Services
Before I became a full-time music teacher in Swindon, I remember exactly what it felt like to be a beginner student when starting out an instrument for the first time and trying to figure out the chords to a simple song. Well, I will have you strumming, singing and tapping away in no time and getting great satisfaction from making music.
At Chris O'Leary Online Guitar Lessons you can learn classical, rock, pop and folk guitar with Chris O'Leary who will give you the skills you need to develop in the instrument, progress through Rockschool grades, or play songs you have always wanted to play. Online music lessons are growing in popularity because the equipment and technology (listed below) required is now in most homes and it's such a convenient approach.
As a full-time musician and guitar teacher in Swindon (Drums, Bass, Vocals and Piano lessons too) I enjoy nothing more than hearing how my students have passed their grades or joined bands. I'd like to congratulate Jack on his distinction in guitar grade 4 and getting one of the highest scores possible, a lovely lad that's been coming for lessons on and off for little over a year now.
I perform as a solo singer and guitarist a wide selection of songs and take audience requests for parties, weddings and public events.

Sometimes 'one guy and a guitar' can get a bit boring over a long period of time for an evening party, in my opinion, so to add variety and spice, I make use of a bass drum for percussion, beatboxing, looping (like Ed Sheeran does), bass guitar on the lowest strings of my guitar to tie it all together and make it sound like a one-man-band.All of this whilst playing guitar and singing at the same time.

Chris is an incredible and very professional teacher! I could only just manage to hold a guitar (let alone play it) but he was patient and has helped me learn so much. I'd definitely recommend learning from him!

Chris has always helped me get a grasp of things I found really difficult to understand with ease and has given me so much confidence. Can't recommend enough.

I’ve watched Chris as a solo artist as well as play an array of instruments in various bands; covering gigs at local pubs to wider venues for just about any event imaginable.
Not only is Chris a top performer with an abundance of talent, he has taught some of my closest friends, from beginner levels to semi-professionals.
If it can make a noise; Chris’s will teach you how to play it!
I couldn’t recommend Chris’s teaching services or performances more!

During lockdown my son started guitar lessons through zoom with Chris. He's learnt such alot in a short space of time and really enjoys his weekly sessions. I would highly recommend these lessons. Great value for money! 🙂
