BIO: Jarrod Stephenson - Guitar Lessons - Classical Flamenco Jazz Rock Metal Blues

Jarrod Teaches Guitar out of his Private Lesson Studio in Spencer's Music Room Olathe, Kansas

Jarrod Stephenson began playing music at a very young age.  He started guitar at the age of fourteen.  In 2002, his thirst for something more drove him to the Conservatory of Music and Dance, at the University of Missouri Kansas City, where he was honored with the Greensburg Guitar Scholarship for his studies. 

As well as performing solo Classical repertoire under the study of the the prestigious Douglas Niedt, Jarrod had an active interest in Jazz which led him to study with the renowned jazz guitarist Rod Fleeman. In 2006, Jarrod received his Bachelor’s Degree in Guitar Performance, and then was turned on to the art form of Flamenco.

Jarrod studied Flamenco in Kansas City with guitarist Beau Bledsoe.  Jarrod soon began accompanying dancers at the Manos Rojas School of Flamenco.  Still wanting more, Jarrod moved to Spain in 2006, to be immersed in this beautiful art form.  It is there that he studied with Enrique Vargas and Niño Jerro to develop the perfect technique and adapt the Jerez style of playing, which, to many, is one of the most complex and brilliant styles of Flamenco.

After his stay in Jerez, Jarrod returned home to Kansas City and co-founded the group “Alma Flamenca.”  It was with that group that Jarrod began fusing the fiery rhythms of Flamenco with the luscious harmonies of Jazz.  These elements are infused into all of his compositions.

Currently, Jarrod is performing solo guitar throughout the Midwest, and appearing with ”Olé, the Music and Dance of Spain,” as well as composing and forming new groups that will be available to Kansas City very soon.
