Bio

Guitarist and instructor Shaun Ritchie was born in Wise County, Virginia, of English, Scotch Irish, and Cherokee heritage to a family of coal miners.  He says, "If my dad was still with us, I'm sure that is what he would be still be doing. I'm proud to be the son of a coal miner." 

Shaun grew up in Greenville, South Carolina, and started playing bass in 1992 at the age of 13.  He attended Blue Ridge and Travelers Rest High Schools.  During that time, Shaun was accepted into the prestigious Fine Arts Center and attended the FAC Jazz Program for two years.

In 2001, after years of playing in several bands in the Greenville area, Shaun moved to Atlanta, Georgia, to attend the Atlanta Institute of Music and further his musical education.  Upon graduating, he played the Southeast region and Atlanta area
with many different bands, playing tons of gigs and making television appearances.  Realizing that the Atlanta rat race was not for him, Shaun returned to his hometown of Greenville where he currently resides, plays, and teaches.
