Chad Pabianek has been playing guitar for over 23 years, performing in a variety of bands and solo projects, mainly in Canada, and currently with the technical death metal band Satiracy in Scotland. His experience spans multiple genres, giving him a deep understanding of music both as a performer and a teacher. Chad’s teaching approach focuses on making music theory practical and applicable for working musicians. He believes in helping students not just play, but truly understand the tools they need to create, improvise, and develop their own sound. He teaches a wide range of styles, including rock, blues, folk, metal, jazz fundamentals, and improvisation. Students can expect lessons that are engaging, hands-on, and tailored to their goals - whether you’re just starting out or looking to take your playing to the next level. Outside of teaching, Chad continues to write and perform music, bringing his ongoing exploration of tone, technique, and composition into every lesson.
