About Damon
Being a former School Of Rock Music Director, learning music should be about having FUN and that is how I've made my career in this industry. I've taught 1000's of students songs and techniques to help them achieve their musical goals and dreams. Some have performed to family and friends and some have gone on to be able to choose the tertiary music school they dreamt of going to. Some have even gone on to ARIA nominations and some have toured the world.

Music should be fun and with my "Song Based Learning" approach to music lessons, you'll get to learn and play your favourite songs from your favourite artists while also learning the theory and techniques connected to these songs.
I have been working with beginner/intermediate students for over 15 years and have coached them to perform at all levels from a family get together, school performances and even international tours.
While being a performing/professional musician for over 30 years, I have dedicated the last 15 years to preparing musicians of ALL ages from primary school to corporate CEO's for their dream performance.
Feel free to choose between 30 or 60 min lessons online or in person.

Damo is the ultimate tutor. You will not find a more trustworthy, dedicated, experienced or connected music teacher. Whether you are looking for music tuition for yourself, your band or your child, look no further!
Our own experience with Damo spans more than 14 years. Damo's tutoring and mentoring of our son was impactful and inspirational from the first day to the last. Damo's willingness to go above and beyond meant our son was able to live the rock and roll dream, touring the US (3 times!), playing gigs at iconic music venues in Sydney and Melbourne and performing alongside rock royalty, including musicians from AC/DC and Pink Floyd. None of this would have been possible without Damo.
Not only is Damo an accomplished musician across multiple instruments, but he has an extensive knowledge of music covering a plethora of genres and eras. Damo is able to utilise this breadth of knowledge to tailor his song-based lessons to your specific needs.
I have absolutely no reservations endorsing Damo.I know Damo as the Music Director at Big Music school & studios, Crowsnest
He was my sons tutor and musical director. I have known Damo for approx 10 years and I am highly impressed in his musical knowledge, demeanour with children/teenagers, strives for greatness and brings out the best in the children he is responsible for.
Damo's style is cool. He is acknowledged as being very well respected in the Australian Rock music scene, with a lot of big names in the Australian music scene who are happy to donate their time in assisting Damo with music demonstrations for the children.
I watched Damo work hand in hand with charity 'Gotcha for life' to prepare his musical cohort to perform in a large, charity function with some of Australia's best musical industry heavy weights. The children were well prepared and performed like professionals ! Only Damo could have pulled this off.
Damo was a guiding light to my son who was a drummer, and directed him in the right path whilst he was young, to now perform at the highest level, playing live music as an adult, recording albums, video hits and graduating from the University of Sydneys, Conservatorium of Music with a Music Degree majoring in Drumset.
I trusted Damo then, and I still do today.Damo is an incredibly dedicated teacher ensuring his students reach their full potential while enjoying their music journey by tailoring his teaching style to the needs of the student.
Both my kids thrived under his guidance both as their band coach as well as on their individual instruments.
A top human being that I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Damo to any student both young and the young at heart.Damo has coached and mentored many aspiring young musicians who I have known including my own daughter over many years. He is extremely trustworthy and I have witnessed his professionalism first hand including on music tours with students. He has an amazing rapport with musicians of any age , talent and genre. While he makes music lots of fun he understands exactly how to get the best results from each and every student.
Highly recommended.
I have known Damon on a personal and professional basis for over 15 years. I have been tutored and have also had the honour of performing with Damo many many times. He is a class above all of the other tutors that I have experienced. He is a mult-instrumental talent who always gives +100% in every scenario. Not matter what level (novice to advanced) Damo can support you.
I would also add highly competent dedicated and diligent.
