Music Lessons in Sheffield
Bass, guitar, piano and more — with a working musician
I’m Adam Porter — bass specialist and multi-instrumentalist. I teach bass, guitar, double bass, piano, ukulele, and music theory from my Sheffield studio in Handsworth, or online wherever you are. Whether you’re picking up your first instrument or sharpening a technique that’s been bugging you for years, lessons are built around what you actually want to play.
Working musician
20+ years gigging and recording — Mike Stock, Shayne Ward, Abbey Road, the O2. Bring that experience to every lesson.

Bass, guitar, double bass, piano, ukulele, theory. Take one or stack several — same approach across all of them.
