DFW Rock Guitar Academy Arlington, TX

Jon Chorba is a dynamic, energetic, and passionate guitar player, singer, songwriter, producer, sound engineer, and music instructor from Arlington, Texas. Jon holds a degree in Recording Arts from Full Sail University and has been a working musician for over 15 years.

Since 2009, Jon has taught hundreds of beginner, intermediate, and advanced guitar players. When asked what sets him apart from other guitar teachers, he repiles. "No one....and I mean no one...will ever care more about my students than me. I don't ever view my students as clients. They are more like friends and family that have honored me with the privilege to help them play the guitar how they always envisioned. I take that privilege very seriously. Also, I have incredible patience. I understand that not everyone learns the same way and I adapt accordingly. If Method A doesn't work for you, I have no problem trying Methods B through Z to get the result that you want!"

Jon is also the founder, principle songwriter, and vocalist for of the hard rock band, The Liberty Underground, who released their debut album, "Three Feet From Gold" in October 2013. The album draws heavily from Jon's influences of Tool, Guns N Roses, Metallica, Pearl Jam, and Alice In Chains. While Jon wrote, recorded all instruments (except drums), produced, edited, and mixed the record from his small apartment, the end result is a punchy, polished product that could compete sonically with any commercial release. The record features high-octane riffs, meaningful lyrics, reflective ballads, and epic guitar solos.

Jon is also an accomplished sound engineer. He worked professionally as an Audio Engineer at Deluxe Digital Studios and has worked on recording projects with Denise Hudson (current backup singer on NBC's The Voice), Jerad Lippi (drummer of metal band Ever Forthright), and singer-songwriter Jacob Vanko.
