Indulge in the full story

Hi, I'm Dave Kero.

Music is my passion — it has been since I was a kid. When I was 11 or 12 years old, I heard my first guitar solo and almost fell to the ground. My friend asked, "Are you okay?" I said, "Can't you feel that?"

In that moment, I felt electricity rush through my whole body. That desire — that feeling — told me what I wanted to do for the rest of my life: music. I’ve never stopped feeling that pure passion — to play, to perform, and to help others play music too.

When I was 21, I went to a psychic who told me, "You're meant to be channelling cards." But I knew deep down: I was meant to channel music.

And here we are — using music to heal.

I’ve been playing guitar for over 35 years — in bands, duos, and solo gigs — building a following through performances both nationally and internationally.

I’ve landed endorsements from well-known brands such as Elixir Strings and Dava Picks. DKM is proudly based in Sandgate, Brisbane.

I teach students of all skill levels, and my lessons are tailored to you — to help you succeed on your musical journey.
