Jake Oakley is a local musician out of Roswell, Georgia. He first started playing music at the age of 7 when he began piano lessons, but it was when he received his first guitar at age 15 that he truly dove head-first into musical studies. At age 17, Jake started a guitar club at his high school, helping other students learn basic guitar skills in an open and judgement-free setting. Jake continued playing throughout high school, and after graduation, attended Georgia College and State University to study music therapy. There, Jake trained for nearly 5 years under classical guitarist, Dr. Sydney “Dusty” Woodruff, and studied teaching and therapy techniques to serve a wide variety of individuals.

As a music therapist, Jake has spent time with clients in Middle Georgian school systems, hospice homes and psychiatric wards, using music as a tool to bring his clients a greater sense of happiness, spiritual perspective, and improve their general quality of life.

Jake has also been involved with his own musical projects since 2012, which brought folk, funk, reggae, jazz and rock influences to stages around Middle Georgia. Although passionate about his own endeavors, Jake truly loves bringing his easy-going, dynamic teaching style to all of his students. Each of Jake’s students is privy to a wide variety of guitar styles and techniques, ear training, music theory knowledge, and a custom-tailored learning experience based on the student’s personality, preferences and practice schedule.
