KEITH WATSON

Keith started teaching himself piano at the age of 6 but realized at the age of 15 that piano wasn’t going to get him the girls, so he quickly switched to guitar. After learning every possible Led Zeppelin note he could, he started teaching music at the age of 17. A few short years later, he decided to take up a classical guitar because, well, it sounded harder than what he was playing. (And, he already found his girl…. thanks U2 Desire). Keith completed his Royal Conservatory studies and made the switch back to rock and roll, jazz, blues, folk and more contemporary styles, picking up the bass, mandolin, ukulele, and didgeridoo along the way. After almost 40 years of teaching, he has an even stronger belief that “Learning has to be fun.” Oh yeah, Keith has been on stage with such greats as Randy Bachman, Loverboy, Trooper, Tom Cochrane, Jim Cuddy, Northern Pikes, Big Sugar, Colin James, and the list goes on.
