My name is Ron Lemire, and I’d like to share a bit about myself and how I can help you play guitar better.

As a local musician with nearly fifty years of experience, I’ve spent most weekends playing everywhere from pubs, bars, and Legion halls to weddings, rodeos, and high school dances. I’ve performed in all kinds of venues, including community halls, campgrounds, hockey arenas, and school gyms all across the region.

I started learning guitar when I was 12, right when Rock ‘n’ Roll was exploding in popularity. Back in the late 1950s, things were very different: there were no computers, no internet, and few people had TVs. Music teachers only taught classical music, so if you wanted to learn popular music, your only resources were records and the radio.

It might be surprising, but guitar sales increased by over 1000% throughout the 60s and 70s. Thousands of new bands formed, and some became supergroups like The Beatles and The Rolling Stones. We all learned to play guitar the same way—a method that was fast, easy, and fun. However, as local bands began to disappear by the end of the 1980s, this nifty way of learning guitar faded away.

You don’t need to spend hundreds or even thousands of dollars to learn guitar. I built my SoloBand website to bring back that secret—the fast, easy, and fun way to learn guitar in a week. I stand by this promise with a one-month tutoring offer for just $25 and a firm guarantee that I will never use or sell your email address for marketing.
