Bio
In a community full of world-class musicians, Dave Isaacs is known around Music City USA as the “Guitar Guru of Music Row”. The New York native has called Nashville home since 2005, and has built a reputation as an ace guitarist and top teacher, mentor, and musical coach.
Dave has helped countless aspiring and pro musicians songwriters, and performers expand their musical knowledge, improve their performance skills, and achieve dynamic new levels of success.
A big picture instructor who maintains a bustling private studio practice in the heart of Nashville, his creative and effective approach trains not just the hands but also the mind and ears. Dave’s finely-tuned methods teach his students to develop real musical skills: not just how to play, but how to continue to learn and grow.
Over the course of a twenty-five year performing career, Dave has played on stages from Nashville’s world-famous listening room the Bluebird Café to the Woodstock Reunion at Yasgur’s Farm. He has played the blues with Les Paul and performed on classical guitar at New York’s venerable Riverside Church. His 11-album discography provides a diverse showcase of his range as a writer and musician: eclectic singer-songwriter, exuberant roots-rock, ambient grooves, and melodic guitar excursions. With a vocabulary this wide, some musicians might simply come across as musical chameleons, but Isaacs’ distinctive writing, playing, and singing paint a picture of an artist who has carved out a niche all his own.
