Biography:

Grace Buford a professional performing singer/songwriter currently residing in the southern Gwinnett County area of Grayson, GA. She has been actively teaching guitar and piano for 4 years most recently adding vocal instruction to her repetoire. She has released three albums under her own name all available on iTunes with one hard copy CD available at CDBaby.com or at her live performances. Her desire is to give students a basic knowledge of their instrument, music theory, music appreciation, listening to music with a more discerning ear, and tap into the students desire to make music of their own. She does not believe in pushing a student to move at her pace, but rather to work with the student at their own pace and does her best to find methods that help the student learn without stress and fully grasp musical concepts.

She started taking piano lessons at the tender age of 4 years old and performed at various piano competitions throughout her years. She has performed in church worship teams in Gwinnett County, traveled overseas with worship teams as a part of Global Missions, and led worship for time at Gwinnett Community Church. She started a youth praise team and led courses on using your art as worship whether it be musical or visual art. This developed her desire to work with students on an individual basis, so they could "find their own voice" in the music field of their choice whether it be performance or simply for their own personal enjoyment and life enrichment.

She has been performing in the regional southeast at festivals, benefits, and venues since 2005 and at nationwide conferences, art galleries, and events since 2006. Her music has sold worldwide with a strong fanbase in New England, San Francisco, and the UK. She performs online from the comfort of her home when not teaching or traveling and because of this use of new media and the internet to market her music she has appeared on MTV's True Life as a mentor to a young 20-something songwriter in San Francisco, was written up in the Indie Music Section of Billboard Magazine in Jan 2008 and was even featured on CNN in April 2009.

Currently, she teaches out of Gwinnett School of Music on Monday, Wednesday, and Thursday nights in addition to her private in-home instruction.
