Meet our Talented team
Wes Bennett
“My name is Wes, and I have been teaching drums in Georgetown KY for over 10 years now. I have been playing drums and other instruments for over 18 years. I have taught over 500 people how to effectively play drums in a plethora of different genres, styles, and techniques. I mostly enjoy playing drums, but I also play guitar, bass, piano, uke, singing and many more percussion instruments.
After teaching drums for 5 years, I decided to start Georgetown Drum Sessions in January of 2019. Ever since then, I have been completely committed to teaching and helping people develop their skills and self-confidence in music.
Teaching & playing music is my passion, and its impact on me has defined who I am as a person in so many extordinary ways. Teaching others with this same level of passion allows me to teach music in the way it was meant to be heard, shared, and felt. Music is so powerful. It’s the only real magic in this world. It heals people, helps overcome obstacles, makes them stronger, and brings people together regardless of who they are or where they come. This, and many more reasons is exactly why I am dedicated to teaching music to everyone so they can one day have the same life changing experience I’ve had myself.”
DC Davis
“I believe all talent is unique in nature, a blessing to be cultivated.
I help my students find their voice, explore and build their musicality, their confidence, and their joy through singing, playing, songwriting, or all of the above. Music is an expression of the soul developing cognative awareness through creativity, and a sense of self accomplishment. Born to opera singers, I was taught Bel Canto
at an early age and began my professional music career at 13. I have made a living as a touring recording artist, published song-writer, singer, guitarist, and keyboardist in country, pop, musical theater, big band, top 40, heavy metal, and progressive rock genres for over four decades. I have also performed as an actor in film, music videos, and off-off broadway. Since 2012, I have taught voice, piano, guitar, ukulele, songwriting and performance, working with rock schools, middle school choirs, and privately to beginning and professional artists alike.”
Seth Goodrich
“Finding music at an early age established the foundation for the love of creating and learning new things. I consider myself a guitarist at heart, but I am able to play/teach guitar, bass, drums, and music theory. Learning music has provided me the tools to understand and leverage math and science in my professional life; and, is responsible for the majority of my life long friendships.”
Alton Greear
“Hey, my name is Alton and I have played guitar
for 10 years and have taught for 2 years. Music I enjoy playing goes anywhere from Bob Dylan to Mac Demarco. Music is my passion in life, and I love showing others this piece of me.
Teaching truly is the best job in the world. Some of the things I like to emphasize with my students is their ability to express themselves creatively by creating their own music, improvising, and teaching basic music theory understanding.”
Chris Hurst
“My names Chris. I have a B.S. in Arts, Philosophy, and Literature from the United States Military Academy. While there I played guitar in an on-campus band and recorded a solo blues album as my senior capstone project.
I started playing guitar in 1997 and have experience playing and teaching blues and rock music and fingerstyle guitar. I believe in the power of music to change, improve, and sustain life. My passion in life is to pass on the gift of music through teaching, especially to young people.”
Lynn Brunk
Lynn Brunk graduated from The Ohio State University and University of North Carolina with bachelor's and master's degrees in music education, and served eight years in the Army National Guard Band as a saxophone/flutist/vocalist. She taught choral, band and general music in public, private, and special needs schools for 15 years total across three states with a few years off to homeschool her own children.
She always loved reading, especially to her autistic/dyslexic son and was thrilled when they discovered that the world could be expanded for him through audiobooks. This led to her passion for narration (which is her day job) narrating audio books in her home studio.
When not in her studio, you can find Lynn baking bread from fresh-milled flour, quilting, paper arts, crocheting, and hanging out with her cats
Blake Brooks
Hi, my name is Blake Brooks, I’m 26 years old, and I am a multi-instrumentalist.
I’ve been playing music for as long as I can remember, starting piano lessons when I was just 5 years old. Throughout grade school my interest for music grew, and I knew I wanted to pursue music further. I attended Kentucky Governor’s School for the Arts just before my senior year at Scott County High School. That year I sang in the KMEA Kentucky Allstate Choir and auditioned for the University of Kentucky School of Music, earning a full scholarship to study Percussion Performance and Education.
During my time in college I got to work with a lot of other really great musicians.
I helped form the band Raptured KYHC in Lexington Kentucky, writing and recording one EP and one Album, as well as playing several shows in and around Kentucky.
After graduating from UK in 2020, I partnered with Berea College’s Asian Studies Program to teach Japanese Taiko Drumming and History to students at Berea until 2023. In April of 2023 I moved to Bristol Tennessee with my fiancé and two other musicians to form the band Eiriel, with whom I wrote and recorded an album as their vocalist and toured for three months on the East Coast.
Mark Spencer
Hi, my name is Mark. I’ve been teaching guitar for over 5 years, and I’ve been playing for over 20. I’ve toured around the region in different bands, playing anything from metal to country, as well as doing solo acoustic singer/songwriter shows around Central and Eastern Ky.
Music to me is more than an art, it’s a creative force that inspires, soothes, and heals. It can bring people together, or it can be the anthem for a revolution. The power of music can truly help shape the world we live in.
I believe personal expression is just as important as great technique, and every musician has something unique to express. Playing guitar is a journey where there’s something new to learn at every turn, and the possibilities are endless. I do my best to give every student I work with a solid foundation in music in which they can build on and enjoy for a lifetime.
I believe the best and quickest way to learn is to have fun along the way, and discover your own style and approach to the instrument.
