About Freddie

Hampton guitar teacher Freddie Edwards was born into a musical family, following in his father’s footsteps by pursuing a career in the music industry.

Soon after graduating from The Academy of Contemporary Music (ACM), he was snapped up as a session guitarist for the iconic Francis Rossi of Status Quo. Soon after, Freddie was asked to join the Status Quo lineup on a more permanent basis.

After extensively touring across both the UK & Europe, Freddie switched his focus to becoming a full time member in Flawes, an Alternative Pop act who signed to Red Bull Records in 2016. The group had immediate success with debut single Don’t Wait For Me becoming BBC Radio 1’s coveted Record of the Week.

After support tours with Ella Eyre, Maxïmo Park and AJR, Flawes released their debut album Highlights in early 2020. Freddie is currently in the studio with the band working on their second album.

Hampton Guitar Teacher

"Freddie is a brilliant guitarist and music lover – I can't recommend him highly enough as a teacher. My daughter has been learning guitar for three years and Freddie is endlessly patient and kind to her. He is effective too; by carefully choosing and arranging pieces she likes, then using lots of repetition to get the hang of them she steadily is getting better. We have had lots of music teachers over the years but Freddie really is the best."

"Freddie is a brilliant teacher and a lovely human being. My nine-year old just loves being around him. Freddie's passion for the guitar and his band is so fervid that it quickly passes on to his pupils. Since his first guitar lesson his love for the instrument has grown manifolds. Freddie puts his heart into it and strikes the right chord with the younger ones. My son sees him as his tutor-cum-friend and looks forward to lesson days. I would highly recommend him as a guitar tutor!"

"Freddie is a brilliant teacher and I can't recommend him highly enough. He's patient and a great communicator, even when the concepts are tricky. His knowledge of both theory and practise is second to none and he adapts our lessons to match my learning-style. Freddie is always open to teaching me songs I love but always connects them to broader concepts and theories so I'm expanding my understanding of the instrument as well as learning the song itself. And he's an incredible player to boot – a real inspiration!"

"Freddie's lessons are always creative and fun. They're brilliantly structured and the content is really inspiring. Freddie is the most patient teacher I've come across – he goes above and beyond to find ways of breaking down points and gives context to everything. I'd highly recommend him to anyone!"
