Interview with Sam Reti, Guitarist, Teacher, and Founder of Muzie.Live

Sam Reti is a guitarist, teacher and the Founder of Muzie.Live. Sam was born in Manchester, England and raised in North Andover, Massachusetts. He picked up the guitar when he was twelve and never set it down again. He definitely inherited his dad’s love of music. Together they had father and son jam sessions every day after school.

After accepting admission to Berklee College of Music in Boston Massachusetts, his dreams were coming true following in his father's footsteps. Sam’s father toured through England as a drummer in the 80’s opening for some of the legends such as Black Sabbath and Iron Maiden. During his time at Berklee, Sam lived out some of those dreams by playing at Progressive Nation at Sea, Prog Day and the All Stars Tour with his band Zombie Frogs. 

Sam also discovered his passion for Music Education and Technology. It all started from a college project where Sam and his dad began creating their first software together I Want to Practice, essentially a practice app for musicians. Sam was awarded the Achievement Scholarship for his innovation and dedication to the father and son’s duo’s first project together. 

After graduating from Berklee, Sam spent his time teaching guitar and continued building innovative tools in music technology with his father. In 2019, they started working on Muzie.Live, an all in one virtual music studio for online music lessons and hybrid learning. Today, Muzie.Live continuously leads the industry in innovation to improve virtual learning and enhance music education. With just over two years since the official launch, Muzie.Live has grown to over 40 countries globally and hosts thousands of lessons per week.
