Kosmas Mylon is a Rock/Country/Blues guitarist and bass player from Thessaloniki, Greece. He first picked up the guitar when he was 12 and got inspired playing the blues when he listened to The Allman Brothers band’s album ‘Live at the Fillmore East’.
He is best known as the guitarist of the Wang Dang Doodle band with whom he has been touring and playing in major blues festivals and venues around UK and Europe. In 2016, the band has been awarded ''best local band of the year 2016 in London'' by Hard Rock Café and Kosmas guitar work on the band’s debut album ‘City of night’ has been described as ‘the glue that holds the music together’ and that ‘the kind of relentless efficiency betrays a love for his instrument that transcends the reverential' by Blues Bunny reviews.
He has also been working with various artists and bands over the years and has played in numerous festivals and venues in the UK and Europe.
Kosmas has been teaching private guitar lessons in London and Skype guitar lessons to players around the globe with an emphasis of teaching them on how to play blues and country guitar. In 2018 he introduced his own guitar method, ‘The fingerstyle blues and country guitar method’ which he teaches to advanced players that want to learn how to play old style fingerstyle blues and country guitar in a competitive level.
His debut album called ‘’Kosmas Mylon’s guitar album’’ was released in 2019.

'' I cannot thank enough Kosmas, my 10 year old daughter's ukulele teacher. He is amazing, patient, kind and very professional. Not only has she passed her Grade 1 exam but she has also learnt to love music. Thank you Kosmas! A great teacher!''
GEORGE T.
''I wanted my kids to get into music. In order to set the example, I started guitar lessons with Kosmas more than a year ago. Kosmas is a very nice person and has been extremely patient and passionate teaching an older person like me classical guitar. He is now teaching both my 7 and 4 year old sons ukulele. He is very understanding, very patient and adapts to their needs. Both kids look forward to their next lesson with Kosmas which gives us a great satisfaction. I continue my lessons with Kosmas and I could not be happier. I now understand better both theoretical and practical aspects of guitar theory. I am also more confident playing the guitar (we now focus more on acoustic guitar) and spend more time playing. I would highly recommend Kosmas to any individual or parent.''
