Brandi Brumfield

Brandi Brumfield is a double alumna of Southeastern Louisiana University and holds a Master’s degree in Music Performance. She is primarily a guitarist who specializes in classical and fingerstyle techniques. Brandi strives to find the most effective way for each individual student to understand the language of their instrument. With seven years of teaching experience with private lessons and group classes, she demonstrates and encourages strong fundamental techniques that make playing the guitar as simple as possible.

Brandi is also a multi-instrumentalist who finds joy in interacting with any instrument she can achieve a pleasant sound from, including: synthesizers and electronic instruments, bass guitar, drums and percussion, singing, and more. Her passion lies in blending modern technology and media with the organic nature of classical music. She has participated in a range of performances, including solo and ensemble classical guitar performances, playing in a cover band at a local restaurant, choral performances as a part of the choir and also as an accompanist/part of the ensemble, with her favorite performance being Craig Hella Johnson's Considering Matthew Shepard with the Southeastern Louisiana University Concert Choir in May 2022. When she isn’t teaching or practicing music, she enjoys spending quality time with her pets, and is often attending live music shows. 

My goal as an instructor is to help you gain confidence with your instrument and question less about your technique. I will help you build strong fundamental skills with the guitar, focusing on both left and right hand exercises that allow you to develop a relaxed, yet effective approach to playing the instrument. Through this, you will become connected with your instrument and learn to love playing the guitar. Every student is different, and I am excited to learn how I can help you play the guitar and sound your best!
