Since Fletcher is only 9, this Youtube account is managed by his parents, but we do show him all of your kind comments & he really appreciates them!!!

Please subscribe if you would like to follow his progress!....

Fletcher started taking lessons in April 2008 at age 8 with guitarist Nick Ammons of "The Stereo Riot" through the Paul Green School of Rock. He also immediately began writing his own songs & performing them at local open mic nights, block parties, & charity events. In Feb. 2009 someone saw Fletcher play and gave us Neil Zaza's number & he has been lucky enough to also have lessons with him ever since! This summer Neil taught him how to multi-track record using Ableton Live 7 & within 2 weeks Fletcher was done self-recording his debut album of 11 original songs called "Psycho Freaks are Dancing".

Almost every night there is an amazing concert in our basement and we finally decided that it was time to let him share his music with others. So we recently let him publish his website (which he built & updates himself) & we started posting some of his videos on Youtube.

So far it has been nothing but a positive experience & huge thanks to everyone for being so encouraging to him!!!! He has even recently been featured by both Truth in Shredding & Strat-O-Blogster & was even added into the Young Guitar Wonders Directory!

Besides just being a fun 9 year old boy, Fletcher is creating music constantly & is currently working on self-recording a 2nd album of 11 more original tunes. (Keep checking his website, he will be posting new music soon!!!) He is also getting ready for the School of Rock's next big concert in January!

He is hoping to soon start a band that plays his original music......



Special thanks go out to Neil Zaza, Nick Ammons, the Paul Green School of Rock, Laurie Monk with Truth in Shredding, JP Strat-O-Blogster, our family & friends & all of the amazing musicians on youtube that have been so kind to him!!!
