Who are we?
Hi, my name is Liam and I am the founder of Upbeat Music School. I created this music school to be different from other instrumental lessons you may find in Aberdeen. A place where students have more opportunities to meet each other and make friends who love making music as much as they do. Where you’re not only taught how to play your instrument well, but how to start playing music together. I want Upbeat to be a community of musicians learning together and supporting each other every step of the way.

“Liam makes the lessons fun and clearly explains what you have to do. He asks what kind of music you like and plans the lessons around it. ”
What makes us different?
Band weeks
During Band Week, students get the unique opportunity to play a song they’ve been preparing in lessons with a full live band. Supported by their teacher, students work on listening to other band members, developing their timing and coordination, and building confidence in a collaborative setting. The rehearsal studio environment allows them to enjoy playing with a band without the pressure of a live audience. Beyond improving their musical skills, students also gain valuable experience in teamwork and communication—key skills for any musician.
Jam Sessions
Our Jam Sessions are where the magic of music truly comes alive! These fun meetups give students the chance to connect, collaborate, and jam with fellow musicians in a supportive environment. Whether you’re sharing new ideas, experimenting with fresh techniques, or just having a blast improvising, every session is an opportunity to grow as a guitarist and discover your unique sound. It’s all about creativity, confidence, and enjoying the thrill of making music together. You never know—you might leave with a new favourite riff or even a new musical partner in crime!
Professional Recording Studio
Ready to feel like a rock star? Each student chooses a song they’ve been perfecting in lessons to life in a professional recording studio right here in Aberdeen. The session is filmed, and the audio and video are professionally edited into a polished keepsake that you’ll treasure forever. You’ll sharpen your skills by recording along to a backing track, mastering the art of keeping steady rhythm while staying in the groove and discover the importance of preparation and consistency. Plus, you’ll leave with a boost of confidence and a sneak peek into the exciting world of studio recording.
