I was cleaning around the piano today and as I was stacking some tune books, I commented out loud to myself that it’s great to hear people are still getting to hear music, play concerts, and even learn music all while staying close to home. And then realized I could be engaging better than I am to help pass the time for myself and others....so, I’ve just created an email in order to set up some online lessons. I know lots of people use Skype for teaching all the time and figured it wasn’t a stretch for most folks. Just me...😬😜.

If anyone is interested in some Cape Breton style piano, drop me a line at

pianolessonswithmac@gmail.com

I know... the email address is so original🙄.
