Founder Erland Wanberg started playing the guitar and writing songs when he was 13 years old. Someone that had trouble calming his mind and sitting still in class, writing lyrics and playing the guitar was the canvas he needed to channel his energy, helping him in all areas of his life. Erland went on to tour the nation and worked with some of the best in the music business including Andrew McMahon In The Wilderness (Cecilia & The Satellite) and Grammy award winning recording engineer Robert Carranza (Jack Johnson). After releasing his debut album 'On Our Side,' Erland's songwriting caught the ear of Songs Publishing, a Los Angeles/New York based music publishing company (Lorde, The Weeknd). The publishing deal prompted a move from the Santa Barbara to Nashville. In Nashville, Erland continued to grow musically and further developed his songwriting with creative opportunities to write and record many different genres of music for television and motion picture placement. 

"We facilitate one-on-one lessons with professional instructors to create a strong foundation that will prepare our students for group collaboration and performance opportunities. Our mission is to develop musicians, singer/songwriters and bands that will continue to be musically active in the Santa Barbara community and beyond."

Erland Wanberg, Founder / Head Of Operations

Along his musical journey, Erland discovered his love and talent for teaching. For over a decade he has inspired students of all ages and skill levels to excel with passion and dedication. Many of his students have gone on to pursue their own musical ambitions as recording artists and performers​. Erland has returned home to Santa Barbara with intentions to give back to the community that helped him get his start. In light of coming home, Musicology Santa Barbara was born.
