Jonah Shue has been involved in music and performing since he was just getting started in this world. Music was happening and all around with his parents playing and calling dances for friends in, what he refers to as, the undifferentiated beginning. Early lessons on the fiddle led to studying guitar in junior high school. He studied with many of the area’s finest players and teachers before pursuing classical guitar at the University of Oregon. Returning to Boise in 1991, Jonah played in local bands and taught private lessons at Old Boise Guitar Co. before moving to Boston in 1995 to study jazz guitar and violin at the Berklee College of Music. After traveling and playing in Europe and Asia, he came back to Boise in 2002 and co-founded Old Boise Music Studios where he has been teaching since 2005. A life long devotee of swinging dance music, he is happy to maintain a private teaching studio and perform with 3 great swinging dance bands The Country Club, The Frim Fram Four, and The Hokum Hi-Flyers.

Lessons are organized on an individual basis according to the ability, musical interests, and goals of each student. While there is a strong emphasis on fundamentals, (technique, rhythm, tone, etc..) topics are chosen based on the student's interest and input. It believe progress can be made more easily and quickly if a person's musical tastes are respected and that any style can provide a starting point to begin learning the basics of music. , As a teacher the most important thing for me is to give people the tools to and improve their abilities and understanding of music of any kind. Instruments offered: Guitar, Violin/Fiddle, Mandolin, Ukelele, Bass, Voice, Piano, and more.
I have been teaching private lessons for more than 25 years. In 2006 I cofounded Old Boise Music Studios with fellow instructors and have continued to teach in that space since. I love the process of helping people find the most direct path to their musical goals. Everyone learns differently and I am proud of my ability to see and teach to my students’ unique circumstances and educational needs.
