Darren Welch Instructor of Music
My name is Darren Welch, and I have been a guitar instructor @SPC for about 20years. I have been teaching guitar for just about as long as I have been playing the instrument. I was born in 1960, so I have definitely witnessed, and learned during many of musics’s finest decades. I watched the BEATLES on the Ed Sullivan Show at 4 yrs of age, and that inspired me, as it has so many, to make music my life.
I have been a performer, and bandleader for about 45 yrs. I released my first single, and LP in 1978, both of which have become sought after collectors Items, with original pressings of AXXE “THOUGH THE NIGHT“, and the LP “IMPECCABLE-LIVE ON THE ROX” selling for up to $500. The single – AXXE “THROUGH THE NIGHT” was just re-released in Europe.
I’ve released GROUND ZERO “MAGNETIC HEAVEN” in 1998, “DARREN WELCH GROUP” in 2004, and “DWG Volume 1″, in 2016. All with sales of 10,000 copies, or more, not including downloads of DWG Volume 1. And in late 2024, I released “DWG Volume 2.”
