Issac Hernandez

I hold a Master’s degree in music education. A bachelor’s in music. When it comes to music I can get pretty nerdy. Whether it’s the theory, techniques, culture, etc..

My musical background is pretty ecletic. I grew up with Mexican music, which encompases a wide array of genres and styles. Rancheras, cumbia, boleros, and rock were commonplace during my childhood. 

My later days were surrounded by the sounds of Nirvana, Zeppelin, White Stripes, The strokes, and Arctic Monkeys. It was their music that moved me to further my understanding of the instrument and music. The mentors I came up with were jazz cats. Although it took me a while to understand the music and culture, when it hit, I was in it for good. 

These days I try to expand my horizons by listening to a variety of music. I teach a lot of guitar. I manage social media for NYC Guitar School. I perform with my cumbia band and I make youtube videos where I teach music production. Oh, and I occasionally make websites.
