About Samuel
Sam Burns Bio
Sam Burns (23) is a musician and guitarist from Shorewood, IL. From a young age, Sam knew that he wanted to play music. Inspired by his grandfather (who played the trumpet), he joined the Minooka school band at 9 years old. In addition to playing trumpet, he began playing guitar in the Minooka High school jazz band, guitar ensemble, and began starting bands of his own. This is where he discovered his passion for the guitar and improvisation. Sam went on to study music at Joliet Junior College where he advanced his skillset both musically and professionally under the guidance of the school's instructors and community members who continue to be great friends, mentors, and bandmates. Today, Sam is known as an expressive improviser in the world of jazz and a capable freelance guitarist performing with pit orchestras and working on projects of all genres and styles. In addition, Sam maintains a small private studio, teaches lessons at “Hidden Gem Guitars", instructs group ukulele and guitar classes with the Village of Shorewood, composes original music, and leads groups of his own such as the “Sam Burns 5tet”.Sam and his group will also be headlining the 2024 Joliet Jazz, Wine, and Arts festival in August.

Sam has worked with over 100 students in the past 4 years and has developed a method that caters to students goals. This is achieved via both ends: The Goal and where the student is currently at. This means we will set goal posts weekly, monthly, quarterly, and yearly depending on the goals of the student. On a week by week basis we can even discuss what daily practice and progress will look like for that week to achieve the goals. Look into S.M.A.R.T Goals. Sam is proficient in all genres and styles but is most well regarded in the chicago-land as a great jazz improviser.
