Music Lessons with Joe Farren
Piano / Guitar / Drums
Joe Farren, a 2004 graduate of the University of Southern Maine’s School of Music, now has studio space in his hometown of Scarborough, Maine from which to teach private music lessons. The studio/office is conveniently located across from the high school at Oak Hill Plaza, above Oak Hill Florists and next to the offices of Portland Pupils. Joe has been teaching for four years both privately and in local school systems and is excited to have this new location.
Joe has studied Piano, Guitar, Drums and Voice. He composes his own music and strives for a balance between performing, teaching and writing. Through his studies at the University and his experience performing in musical theater and numerous rock, blues and jazz bands, Joe has gained a thorough knowledge of music fundamentals and theory. Also, as a solo singer-songwriter playing an average of 150 gigs a year, he has gained a wealth of professional performance experience.
Over the summer of 2007 Joe released a second full length album of his own material. The album titled ‘Til The Day has garnered positive reviews in the local music scene and is currently receiving radio play on 98.9 WCLZ. The album is available directly from Joe’s web site at www.joefarren.com, online through apple itunes or at Bull Moose music.
In teaching music, Joe’s approach is to instill the fundamentals while incorporating popular music into the standard repertoire. Lesson plans are tailored to the individual students own tastes using classic methods of training along with encouragement and instruction to play by ear. Having a good time and studying all styles and genres of music is always encouraged.
Piano and guitar lessons are available at the new location. For those seeking drum lessons, arrangements can be made for instruction at the student’s home.
Half hour, 45 minute and 1 hour lessons are offered.

An annual student recital is held each spring featuring a versatile program, from classical repertoire to contemporary rock and roll. Students at all levels perform solo while some also play in combos Joe puts together for this event.
