Meet your tutor: Liam
Hi, I’m Liam. I started Upbeat to make learning music feel natural and enjoyable. With a BA (Hons) in Music Education (University of Aberdeen) and years of tutoring, I use a “Play Over Practise” approach: we make music first, then grow technique and theory in small, clear steps. You’ll play with a beat, learn songs you love, and -when you’re ready - join band jams and studio sessions to build real confidence.

“He is patient, great fun to learn with, and creates a relaxed atmosphere during lessons.”
Erin Gardner (Student)
“Liam’s made me feel really welcome and I’m enjoying learning new skills.”
Member Events
-
Full-band rehearsals in a professional rehearsal studio - loud, supportive, and seriously motivating.
Band Jams give students the chance to play music in a real band with other musicians without the added pressure of a live audience. The sessions are relaxed and we work through intros, endings, and transitions so songs feel tight. Students learn how to communicate like a band and leave buzzing.
-
Step into York Street Studio and record a live take—keep the video, audio, and photos.
Our Studio Live Sessions give students the chance to perform in a professional recording studio. You’ll learn how a real session runs, record a live take. Once it’s been professionally mixed, mastered, and edited together you get to keep a performance video, the mixed audio file, and photos of the day—all included in membership.
-
Low-pressure meet-ups where we jam to real grooves and turn ideas into music.
Our Jam Sessions are relaxed, friendly get-togethers where students plug in and play along with other musicians. We focus on timing, feel, and listening—so even beginners leave sounding musical. It’s the perfect place to try a new riff, improvise a little, and build confidence.
