My name is Kirby and I'm originally from the east coast of Canada from a small town in Nova Scotia of about 1100 people called Western Shore. If you blink while passing thru, you may miss it. Currently I live in our nations capital, Ottawa ON. It's a city of about 850,000 (quite a jump from 1100), but a great place to live.

What I enjoy doing as a musician, since I was 7 years old, is of course playing the guitar. I love learning new songs and teaching others.

Hi Kirby,

Really enjoy your lessons. One question...are you using a pick or not in this lesson and if not what is the best way to learn to use your technique as I am better at finger picking than using a pick.

Thanks

Terry
