ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR

As a multi-instrumental songwriter, Weston writes and performs most of the instruments at his personal studio, deep in the heart of Castroville, Texas.

Weston writes and records various styles of music with a part of his focus in sync licensing for advertisements, film and tv. He has been featured on Showtime's "Shameless" and AUDIENCE Network's - "You, Me, Her."

A drummer first, Weston began his music career with the funk-rock Texas trio, Jumping Monks. As the lead vocalist and drummer for the group, Weston co-wrote and coproduced two studio albums, and rocked out multiple venues and festivals alongside national artists such as Vanilla Ice, Bowling For Soup, Tone Loc, Rehab, Eyes Adrift (Krist Novoselic), and many more.

Realizing the indie shift in the music industry, Weston decided to pursue his dream of constructing his own personal project music studio to operate out of. Weston Ripps Music is the operating house for the artist Weston Ripps.
