The Guitar Man for Kids
Guitar Man Does Ukuleles
"Thank you so much for visiting Kilgour School! You did an amazing job of creating two totally unique programs for both our primary and intermediate students, actively engaging each group fantastically! You had our entire faculty on their feet doing the luau, which is a testament to what a gifted entertainer you are. Weeks later, I still have teachers asking me to pass along how wonderful your show was. We hope to have you back again soon.   Dena Hipskind (2010)

Thank you so much for a wonderful school tour! As you can see, you were a big hit! -

"Ohio-based children's artist and multiple guitar master Jim McCutcheon serves as an irresistible ambassador for the instrument, celebrating its varied styles and forms-acoustic and electric guitar, the ukulele, South America's charango, the balalaika-in his own and others' playful and soulful songs… Throughout McCutcheon's lively, assured vocals and conversational comments reach out with expressive warmth, humor and ease of delivery, making him sound as if he's a very talented friend who's come over for a visit-with his entire "guitar zoo." "

"Our campers had a blast...you were great
with the kids. We are looking forward
to having you again..."
Allyson DeShurko, C-WT Park District (2009)

"The staff continues to comment on how wonderful you are to adapt to individual needs and to allow the students to experience the instruments first hand."
