Today’s Guest







Rob Spampinato is the owner of Rob’s School of Music. He just released This Book Shreds, a foundational guide to understand, practice, and make music, while also setting goals and achieving them. He started playing music when he was five years old but quit the instrument at six. At 13, his best friend started playing and asked him to dig that old guitar out of his closet. A quarter of a century later, thousands of gigs, tens of thousands of lessons later, music is now his life. His music school and his book show people it’s never too late to make music a part of your life. Rob has taught over 30k lessons and interviewed artists like Steve Vai, Phil X (Bon Jovi Guitarist), Richard Fortus (Guns N Roses Guitarist), and Arianna Powell (Olivia Rodrigo Guitarist).
