Ron Hagadone

Ron Hagadone started playing guitar at the age of 14 in the suburbs of Detroit, Michigan. His commitment to musical mastery led him to performing and recording arts in the greater Detroit area, and eventually to Los Angeles, where he played in numerous touring and local bands. While continuing to perform and to teach guitar, Ron returned to college and earned a degree in Music Therapy. Finding a suitable position in Central California, he worked for 20 years and continues to maintain board certification. During that time, Ron served as producer/music director on numerous recordings and live performances. Currently, Ron is self-employed as a musician, music producer, music instructor, music therapist, and "half-day handyman."  He and his wife play music as a duo, and they occasionally form a trio or quartet for various local and regional gigs. Ron is inspired to use his expansive talents to joyfully serve others, and can be counted on for his unique sense of humor.
