Robin

Robin teaches guitar, bass guitar, ukulele, piano, mandolin, trumpet, and drums at Knapton Musik Knotes.

Robin began playing the guitar at age 15 when she started taking lessons at Knapton.  She fine-tuned her performance skills with Rock County 4H, Show Choir, and Heat Wave. 

Robin plays lead guitar and sings in the local band Curb Appeal, which originated as a Knapton Rock Camp band.  

When she's not teaching or playing music, Robin stays busy with modeling and participating in Cosplay.  

Robin's favorite food is artichoke and her greatest regret in life so far is that she never learned how to whistle!

Everett

Everett’s dad was a drummer in many different bands over the years, so it was only natural that he was introduced to music at a young age! What started as an interest in drums led to an interest in all things music.

In 6th grade, Everett learned that he was a prodigy at playing the alto saxophone. He was also a member of his school’s choir and had the same choir director throughout junior high and high school. During his senior year of high school he took a Music Theory semester course which really sparked his overall interest in music. It was in that class that he learned a lot of different theoretical ideas that helped him discover some new ideas that can transpose to every instrument there is.

Everett also took to learning other instruments quickly and is now giving music lessons in guitar, bass guitar, ukulele, drums, and saxophone!

Karl

Karl was Brad Lutton's very first guitar teacher!  Since October of 1985, Karl has given over 50,000 lessons!  He teaches guitar, bass guitar, ukulele, banjo, and drums.

When Karl was young, his interest in music was sparked by his father whose country band practiced every week in the home.  Sharing this love of music with students is Karl's favorite part about teaching.  

Karl has played in countless bands over the years!  Back in the mid-90's, he even spent three years writing the World's Greatest Chord Book, just for his own personal use!

Karl is a private instructor who rents studio space at Knapton Musik Knotes.
