Hey, I’m Kosta Varvatakis. I’ve been playing guitar for over 25 years and have been lucky enough to tour the U.S. and overseas with my former band Hatriot. I’ve recorded four albums and worked on tons of songs over the years—writing, recording, and featuring on tracks across the heavy music spectrum. Now, I’m all about sharing what I’ve learned to help up-and-coming players find their sound snd sharpen their skills. If you’re ready to level up, I’ve got your back.
As a guitarist for almost 20 years, I began playing guitar at 9 years of age and started playing classical guitar. I then picked up the electric guitar at 16, acoustic guitar at 20, and now play flamenco and jazz guitar at 30. I know advanced chords like 6, 9, 7th, 7b9, 7#9, 7b5, 7#5, advanced scales like altered, Lydian dominant, Phrygian dominant, modes, harmonic and melodic minor, etc. I know music theory very well and self-taught myself all kinds of lessons like borrowed chords, modulation, diatonic keys, dominants, tritone substitution, backdoor dominants, secondary dominants, etc. I also create my own music using music theory, circle of fifths, and advanced techniques. I can also use tabs to read music. I'm specifically, however, good at the guitar and almost every time I play at the guitar center, I receive compliments and praises of people telling me that I'm very talented.
