Russell Head (620) 421-6700 ext. 1020

Russell Head has had a long career in the music industry as a performer, engineer, and producer. After he started playing guitar in 1973, Russ quickly progressed through every style of music including Country, Bluegrass, Rock and R&B, and is widely considered to be one of the best guitarists in the area. After stints in various bands, including performing in Las Vegas show bands for many years, Russ has also worked as a large scale live sound reinforcement tech, monitor and house engineer, for many companies including StagePro in Lawrence, KS. 

Russell has experience engineering groups from various generes, including country, gospel, contemporary Christian, rock, rap, and others. He is a multi-instrumentalist, his primary instrument being the guitar.

While Russell teaches the technology based classes, several other faculty teach Lighting Technology, Music Theory, and Arranging for Songwriters.  All of the instructors are professionals in their field and meet regularly to evaluate the program and make sure that the students are learning all that they need to succeed in the music industry.  It is their goal to make sure that the students understand far more than just how a piece of equipment works, but also why it works, and how the concepts behind it apply to every other piece of equipment like it.

If you have any questions, please contact Russell Head by email or by phone at (620) 421-6700 ext. 1020.
