Introducing

Glenn Paul

Glenn Paul

Imagine an annoying little kid, begging his parents every day for a drum set. That was me! After 2.5 years of relentless nagging, they finally caved and bought me a drum set from the classifieds section of the Spectator. Unfortunately, all the bands in my high school already had drummers, so after a year, I traded my drumsticks for a guitar and jumped headfirst into a punk band with my friends.

Weekends were a blur of shows in Hamilton and Toronto, guided by MapQuest printouts to navigate the cities. When it was time to apply for post-secondary education, I made the last-minute decision to study jazz at Mohawk College. That's when my teaching practice began. I started teaching at local music studios while still in school. I also did a brief stint in science at McMaster University, where I was one of the founding members of the Music Cognition Lab & spent most of my time practicing for my elective: playing with the McMaster Jazz Big Band.

Later, I took my talents to cruise ships, where I played drums with incredible musicians from around the world. This experience allowed me to tick off over 17 countries from my travel list while sight-reading shows seven days a week. In 2014, I returned to Hamilton, initially planning to move to New York City or LA. But after seeing the world, I realized how much Hamilton had to offer and decided to stay. Since then, I've been firmly rooted here, dedicating my time to creating resources for my students, learning new music for performances, and creating my original works.

Testimonials

We started with Glenn over a year ago, just before the pandemic changed everything. So we only had a few in-person lessons for guitar before moving to virtual. My son had never touched a guitar in his life before then and now he can’t put it down, Glenn has been so inspiring for him. 4 months ago, we started my other son with drum lessons, all virtually with Glenn, and it’s been amazing! Glenn is very professional and always keeps my sons engaged. The virtual recitals are so great!

Lia, Parent

Glenn is a skilled musician and a great teacher.

Bryan, Student

I strongly recommend Glenn as a music teacher. I've been taking drum lessons from Glenn for a couple of months and really could not be more impressed with every aspect his teaching and approach. Glenn has a real knack for building lessons which very effectively improve playing and technique while simultaneously being a lot of fun. I've seen a pronounced improvement in my playing and look forward to our lessons every week. Additionally, Glenn is also both incredibly friendly and extremely professional. Also, Glenn is one absolutely amazing drummer!

Paul, Student

I've had the pleasure of working with Glenn for many years in different settings. He's well versed in many styles of music, does his homework (learns songs), arrives on time, dresses the part and is just a great musician to play with.

Dan, Musician

I hosted a Swing Dance for my church and Glenn brought with him a talented group of musicians who played their hearts out all night long. Some of us danced and everyone enjoyed listening to the great selection of songs. The band was punctual, professional, friendly and made the event a huge success. Thanks Glenn for sharing your talents with us.

Leeyan, Event Organizer

Glenn is a phenomenal guitar teacher. He is very knowledgeable, patient, kind, and encouraging with my kids. My 10-year-old looks forward to his class with Glenn every week, where he can learn his favourite songs! If you’re looking to learn from the best, Glenn is your guy! Highly recommend!!
