My name is Timothy James Lotter. At 29 years old, I bring over 15 years of live performance experience and 9 years of teaching guitar and bass. I began playing guitar at the age of 10 and started performing professionally at just 12 years old.

As a professional session guitarist and bassist, I have had the privilege of working with prominent artists including Zaan Sonnekus, Kurt Darren, Dodo Nyoka, and Tamlyn Wessels. Throughout my career, I have toured nationally and performed on some of South Africa’s biggest festival stages.

I am also a member of Human Nebula, whose achievements include winning the South African Metal Music Award for Best EP in 2018 and the Wacken Metal Battle Africa 2026.

My teaching approach focuses on developing strong fundamentals, musicality, technique, and confidence while helping each student achieve their own unique goals as a musician.
