About
Thanks for taking the time to check out my corner of the interwebs. Currently, I serve as the Director of Marketing and Artist Relations for The National Guitar Workshop. I have been involved with NGW since 2004 when I was a Traveling Resident Advisor.
During that summer I used my time with NGW to finish my undergrad degree in Music Business from Minnesota State University-Mankato. After my time in Mankato, I went to the University of Northern Iowa where I got my Master’s Degree in Jazz Pedagogy. After grad school, my wife and I moved to Connecticut to work for NGW full time. It has been an amazing experience where I get to spend my time with some of the greatest guitar teachers in the world and meet some of my all time guitar heroes.
Beginning with a Dave Matthews Band concert on 8/17/1995 (Yes, I know the date) I have had a huge interest in all things guitar. Here you will find some articles I find interesting in addition to the occasional lesson I have time to crank out. By all means, if there is something you would like to see me cover, leave a comment and I will get back to you.
Thanks,
Jason Shadrick
