“Mr. Matt” Donovan is a multi-instrumentalist who began studying piano at age 6 and currently offers instruction in piano, ukulele, guitar, and drums. 

Matt began playing keyboards professionally at age 16, touring the SouthEast with the legendary beach music band “The O’Kayshions” 

From there he began playing piano for the “Left Bank Jazz Band” at USC and received further training at the prestigious Berklee College of Music in Boston, Mass. 

The love of music has taken Matt across the USA to Europe, Romania, and even a pub gig in Ireland. He recorded accordion and hammered dulcimer with Nashville producer Jay Joyce for the band Matrimony (Columbia Records). He has worked with many “Nashville Cats” and learned about how each musician’s journey is uniquely their own.

Matt loves to work with beginners and intermediate musicians; finding out what they love about music and how to have as much fun as possible while learning their instrument of choice!
