About Henry Bateman

I am a passionate musician and educator, currently training as a Nordoff & Robbins music therapist. I teach guitar (of all styles!), songwriting and music production. I hold an MA in Music Composition and Production, a BA (Hons) in Popular Music, and a Grade 8 in Classical Guitar. I teach guitar for two academy trusts, as well as working with a raft of private students of all ages and abilities. I have also lectured in popular music performance and composition at BIMM, Manchester and other HE institutions in the North of England.

Songwriting, Composition & Production

If you have song ideas you need help developing, need guidance using a Digital Audio Workstation like Logic Pro X or Ableton, or want help getting your songs to a point where they sound finished and release-ready, I can help. I have released five solo studio albums to increasing critical acclaim. With such a broad experience of music composition and production, I can help you improve your songwriting and production skills, regardless of the styles or genres you are interested in working in.

Guitar

I teach all styles of guitar. I am a virtuoso classical and acoustic guitarist. When I took my Grade 8 exam, I was awarded an Exhibition Award from Trinity Guildhall for the highest mark of that exam season. I am a specialist in contemporary fingerstyle guitar styles. I was awarded full marks for my final A Level recital in which I performed music by the acoustic guitar virtuoso Michael Hedges. I am currently preparing for a Fellowship Diploma in acoustic guitar.

I have performed with numerous bands around the UK. My own band 'The Henry Bateman Band' has had several incarnations and has performed sell-out headline shows as well as high profile support slots for artists such as Canadian Joey Landreth, and UK Songsmith Sam Brookes. I also perform as a solo act, doing many of my own shows, but also private functions such as weddings and hotel gigs.

Education

Most recently, I have been working as a visiting or guest lecturer in guitar, songwriting and popular music at BIMM University, Leeds Conservatoire, Hull University and Leeds Arts University.

Over the last three years, I have worked around West Yorkshire in se...
