About Stacy Webster

Though I have been singing and playing guitar—alone and in bands—since 1988, as of April 2014, I decided to fully pursue my passion and become a full-time performing musician. I specialize in singing, songwriting, and playing electric and acoustic six string guitar, bottleneck slide, and a bit of Scruggs-style banjo. I have had the privilege of playing on stages in Iowa, Illinois, Wisconsin, Michigan, Colorado, Minnesota, Missouri, Texas, Indiana, Kentucky, Tennessee, New Mexico, Wyoming, and California. I am always eager to find creative people to collaborate with to expand my experience, both musically and geographically. I also teach guitar to people of all age ranges and spanning from beginner to advanced intermediate. I enjoy teaching to an individual's strengths as a leaner and strive to create lesson plans tailored to each student's needs. I can be reached via email, stacy.webster@gmail.com, or through the Musician's Pro Shop in Iowa City to set up lesson times. I am happiest when I'm performing in projects with musicians who share my desire to evolve in every possible way as a performer: to learn new genres, to play in new places, to continually improve technique, and to innovate and create by having an inventive, improvisational, and completely open and enthusiastic attitude towards writing new music, exploring old music, and maintaining an atmosphere in which we aren't afraid to take chances and follow wherever the music takes us.
