Get to know our summer program teachers!

Liam Compton is our fantastic instructor for Artist Live, our summer rock band program.

Liam has been playing music for over 20 years! His parents are both musicians, so he feels he was destined to follow in their footsteps. Today, he plays guitar with amazing bands like Tipling Rock, SpeechLess, and Silver Arrow Band.

In his teaching, Liam loves the "aha" or breakthrough moment when a challenging concept clicks for a student. He has experienced this many times with his guitar students here at Needham Music!

Liam is inspired by many different artists, including D’Angelo, Joni Mitchell, Elliott Smith, Frank Ocean, Luiz Bonfa, and Julian Lage.

In his free time, Liam enjoys reading, exploring nature with his dog, and eating Indian curries.

To experience Liam's rock expertise, sign up for Artist Live on our website (needhammusic.com) today!

We will be fully closed on Monday, May 25th, for Memorial Day. There will be no lessons that day, and the store will be closed as well.

However, we ARE open tomorrow (Saturday 5/23) both for lessons and in the store.

Whether you're here or away, we hope you have a wonderful Memorial Day weekend!
