Find Your Perfect Guitar Teacher
I currently focus on indie rock/folk styles of singing and writing in my own artistic endeavours, but am capable and open to teaching whatever styles the student is interested in. Guitar lessons are geared towards beginner guitar lessons, and are best for those starting from scratch or wanting to use the guitar for songwriting and music creation as a vocalist or music producer.

Guitar Lessons for Songwriters:
Learn guitar so you can write and perform your own songs. Cassidy is an indie pop artist and producer, and lessons focus on chords, strumming and accompanying your own voice.
Cassidy Taylor is an indie pop artist and producer based in Montreal, Quebec. Known for writing incredibly thought-provoking lyrics and unforgettable hooks, Cassidy’s sound is described as introspective yet anthemic — the kind of music that allows you to hear yourself. Cassidy has been compared to artists like Gracie Abrams, Billie Eilish, and some of the greats like Joni Mitchell and Chrissie Hynde of The Pretenders. With her enormously warm and inviting presence on stage, she has charmed audiences across Ontario and continues to amass fans in places as far as Australia and Germany through her regular music releases. Her latest release, an acoustic version of a fan-favourite track called “Not Blue”, was released in March 2026.
Growing up a shy kid in the Haliburton Highlands of Ontario, Canada, Cassidy began writing songs in her bedroom at the age of 8. After years of honing in her artistry both on and off the stage, now nothing matters more than connecting people through her self-produced tracks and unifying live shows.
Releasing her debut, self-titled EP in 2023, the project has garnered over 200K streams on Spotify. The third single off the project, “The Moon”, landed a spot in Season 2 of Surviving Summer, a fast-growing Netflix TV series based in Australia.
Some of Cassidy’s notable performances include Opening for Michelle Owen at The Drake Underground in Toronto [2025], opening for Havens at the El Mocambo in Toronto [2024], opening for Julian Taylor in Haliburton [2023], the JUNOS Opening Night Chair Reception in Toronto [2022]. Having written with acclaimed artists such as Julian Taylor, Zoe Sky Jordan, and Robyn Dell’Unto, Cassidy is making a name for herself in the industry not only as a proficient songwriter and producer but as an artist.

Jordanne was exceptional - I can't recommend her work enough to anyone seeking to improve their vocal technique and/or strength. She takes a full-body approach to singing, based on her training in Alexander Technique, which in my case meant connecting my posture to tension across my whole body. With Jordanne's guidance I was able to go from singing with tension and strain to singing with fluidity and support, all within a very short period of time. The newfound confidence I have in my voice is life-changing!

Robert is the best voice teacher I've ever had. In addition to having an amazing voice and range (helpful when I need to hear the notes back) he's incredibly supportive and fun to work with. I've improved my voice drastically and he really helped me through learning to belt and riff! Thank you Robert!!
Rebecca
I absolutely LOVE Ocean. I started singing last May and I was super nervous about it. Singing is extremely personal and vulnerable, and for me it’s been so hard to feel comfortable enough to go to lessons because of how insecure I am about my voice. Once I summoned the courage to finally take lessons, I have to say that Ocean really went above and beyond to ensure I felt comfortable and safe.

Jordanne is great teacher! For the first time I contact her, I am very pleased. She took the time to truly understand what I needed. And, the first time I met her she made me feel so comfortable that I felt at ease to express myself. She made me do some exercise to see what my blocage was. Then gave me a routine, which is exactly what I needed. It have been only 3 courses but I can experience the change and improvement. And not only in singing and piano. I wasn’t aware of all the tension I use to have in my body. Now that I am conscious of that, I am able to relax my body and feel a deep connection.
Samantha Timmons
I did my first lesson with Jordie last week. She is very patient and has a lot of knowledge on vocal training. She made me see things from a different light in just one session! Her knowledge is impeccable. I’m looking forward to working on my voice with her! I already feel improvement in just a week. Truly recommend her.
