Most students think they have to be amazing to develop an identity and have a myriad of speed-licks and repetoire, but these are not critical factors in my opinion; you can have very little technique yet remain original in sound and style. Singers develop a voice that is instantly recognizeable – for instance Ronnie Dio compared to Joe Lynn Turner or Graham Bonnet compared to David Coverdale – you would never confuse their instantly recognisable and distinct voices. I am striving to help my students achieve a ‘thumbprint’ that separates them from anyone else- in the real world this could make all the difference at auditions where being different is critical". Teaching Mission Reliability and continuity To progress and move with technology To tailor each lesson individually Competitive prices in accordance with current MU requirements To provide regular written termly reports. About me: During the early 90’s Nathan had joined several bands and played in numerous studio sessions with bands, TV, advertising. Nathan had already gained critical acclaim from a local journalist for the Chronicle and Echo, a local Northamptonshire newspaper, he wrote: “He’s disturbingly good and that’s no journalistic hyperbole.” ( Mark Fielden) Nathan’s earliest demo recordings were featured on Radio One on the Friday Rock Show ‘Rockwar’ with host Tommy Vance, following this he gained interest from further magazines and gained auditions for major management companies, bands and artistes. Compiling all of his most successful compositions Nathan sent a collection of instrumentals to Guitarist magazine: “A virtuoso of near mythical proportions. Deadly accurate playing with machine gun rapidity, making him one of the very fastest guitarists we’ve ever heard.” ‘Fast, Slow, Light, Dark, Nathan has the balance just right – Gentle ballads and all the licks n Trick of Malsmsteen, Lynch or Vai’ This was followed by Sound on Sound reviewing the same album: ‘Speed-picking galore and really vocal sounding melodies’ SoS In a recent live performance Nathan received the following acclaim in a music magazine: ‘Nathan Doyle was very talented indeed, from the first few notes of his solo, he blew me and the others around him completely away, he managed to effortlessly get the best out of his guitar and managed to use just enough overdrive to give the solo the kick it needed but it was subtle enough to blend in with the song, and this is something that carried over into the other songs’.

Band: Band project with Neil Austin, various sessions.
