    Kristopher Burgmeier
    Distance: mi
    Guitar Center Syracuse 3150 Erie Blvd. East Syracuse, NY
    I first picked up Guitar when I was 12 years old and never looked back. Along the way, I started picking up Bass, Piano, Harmonica, and Percussion as side instruments and eventually added mandolin and banjo into the mix; though Guitar still remains my primary instrument. I first started being self-taught with music until I went to college and started taking private lessons and classes. From there, I learned classical theory, jazz theory, recording audio, and participated in jazz/rock ensembles. I graduated in 2018 from SUNY Oswego with a Bachelor's in Audio Design and Production. Since my first year in college, I started giving private lessons to friends and beginners who showed an interest in learning how to play. I have also been a performing artist since I was 17 and continue to do so either solo or with bands and projects. I am also an avid singer-songwriter and have been writing my own music since I was 13. I released my first album at 20 years old and have been releasing new music since then under my own name and bands I've been a part of. I'm always searching to learn more along the way and to keep myself involved in the music community.
