About

Brandon Ross has been making music and art from the beginning of his journey but you might have recently seen him as a featured player with San Diego's own Zavala Sol Blues Band. Born in Sherman Oaks CA (the original Valley) and at a time, 1979, to offer a unique and expansive musical education; from rap and metal to musical theater, ragtime and everything in between. After moving to Atlanta, GA in his early teens, Brandon's musical palette expanded further, getting serious about his musical education, the piano, composing and getting involved with several bands and productions. After studying at GSU, Brandon worked as a featured musical act at the Georgia Renaissance Festival, started teaching music (piano, guitar, bass and drums) and eventually performed on a national tour with American idol finalist Diana Degarmo. In 2012, after a decade of operating a very successful private music school, Brandon changed paths to pursue a career in the film industry where he worked as an art director and production designer for over a decade. He now calls San Diego, Santee CA, home where he lives with his wife, threenager, baby son and retired mother. He loves playing music and sharing his passion for our musical world. Give Brandon the opportunity to guide and inspire your new or old musician through his fun, structured but low pressure lessons that are always tailored to the student.
