about us
Presley Music House offers private music instruction across a variety of instruments for aspiring career musicians and music professionals. Our students include artists, touring musicians, songwriters, and those preparing for auditions or other professional opportunities, all seeking focused, high-level instruction. Our instructors are experienced, working musicians with professional backgrounds in performance, recording, and touring, bringing real-world insight into every lesson. Each lesson is tailored to the individual, balancing technical development, musical understanding, and practical application.
The name Presley Music House is personal and literal: Presley is founder JP Presley’s surname, and lessons take place in a real house in Berry Hill, just south of Nashville, Tennessee. Carefully designed with a mid-century modern feel, the house gives dedicated musicians a comfortable, creative, and inspiring space to settle in, do the work, and grow with purpose.
About the Founder
JP Presley is a Nashville-based guitarist, vocalist, and music educator with more than 10 years of private teaching experience. A Knoxville native raised in a musical family, he picked up the guitar at the age of seven and has been playing ever since.
JP holds a Bachelor’s degree in Commercial Music from Belmont University. He has performed professionally as a touring guitarist and background vocalist both internationally and throughout the United States with Warner Music Nashville recording artist Gabby Barrett and EMI recording artist Brandon Lay, with appearances on Kenny Chesney’s Trip Around the Sun tour. He is also a founding member of Brother Maven, a Nashville-based rock-and-soul band that performs, records, and releases original music.
While performing and recording remain important parts of his career, JP’s greatest passion is teaching. He enjoys helping students build confidence, develop practical musical skills, and experience the “lightbulb moments” that make learning music exciting.
