Master guitarist Dyce Kimura has risen to the top of Miami’s competitive music scene.  Earning a full-time living teaching guitar lessons and performing strictly in churches and at Christian events, Dyce is realizing a musician’s dream.  A majority of Dyce’s performances are conducted with a full band at renowned music festivals, churches, outreach events and Christian cafés.  Besides accompanying worship services, Dyce plays dynamic, spiritual original songs and popular covers.  As Dyce proclaims, “I’m giving the gift God has given me back to Him—dedicating my life to serving Him and my fellow man in this way.”

At just age 19, Dyce Kimura left Japan for America with only a guitar and a duffel-bagful of clothes. His dream was to become a professional musician—which he realized in just 2 years, becoming an established pro playing sessions, teaching and gigging 7 nights a week. Dyce’s passion and diligence as a musician are evident—but the incredible personal highs and lows he has experienced have provided this guitarist, singer and songwriter with one of the most honest, raw and unique musical voices on today’s scene.

Looking back, there was never a doubt that Kimura would be anything but a musician. While visiting relatives in Japan at age 5, he discovered an old guitar in his grandparents' home: “I just knew right then I would be a guitarist.” He pestered his mom to buy him his own guitar and pay for lessons, and from that point he never looked back…

Soon, Dyce single-mindedly, ruthlessly pursued being the best guitarist he could possibly be—doing so at all costs. He was exposed to all the dangers the music scene provides, including the drugs and 'characters' of the Fort Lauderdale music scene. At first, it was difficult to pursue his passion, while navigating these dangers. However, Dyce eventually found peace and fulfillment by serving in the church, playing spiritually uplifting music, and maintaining sobriety.

Dyce has devoted his life to serving God via music, and has a powerful testimony about overcoming alcohol and substance abuse through faith. His dedication to God thru service of mankind shows others the endless possibilities available when they establish a relationship with God. Currently, Dyce serves as the worship team leader of his Christian Outreach band “Sweet Jesus” at Lighthouse Community Church in Dania, FL. This band is positively impacting South Florida’s youth with relevant Christian music and teaching, by playing outreach events across South Florida.

Dyce is currently teaching guitar in person and thru skype full-time at his own personal studio. He is in high demand and—proud of the fact that he is turning out many soon-to-be pros and semi-pros, and helping others achieve their musical goals as hobbyists. Meanwhile, Dyce is busy expanding his YouTube presence, creating a series of innovative guitar lesson videos, and promoting his new beginner-series guitar lesson DVD.

When Dyce is not playing or celebrating God, he spends his time with his lovely wife Valerie and young son Isaiah.
