Thank you so much for the RockShop Band Camp! You and Christian did an amazing job. Our son learned so much and has been composing madly at home ever since. We really appreciated knowing that he was in a fun and supportive place. It was also fantastic for him to be exposed to playing in a group while having to accompany singers -- different skills than solo lessons. Which we should also thank you for -- his individual piano lessons with Xheni are terrific! She is so talented, kind and encouraging. Her enthusiasm has given him confidence and joy in his playing. Thank you!
Hey Lonny!
I don't know if you know, but our son Vaughn got a bass for graduating high school last year, and he moved to London UK in October to join a trio. They toured Europe opening for Les Claypool this spring and right now are touring with him on a short tour in the U.S. Over the next few days they are playing NY, NJ, etc etc - check it out - Hotthedd.
We can't thank you enough for the music lessons. Leo still plays piano and guitar, and sings every day - he is currently into Frank Sinatra. Before that it was "I Blame Coco".
Cheers man, and a million thanks.
Thank you for another amazing year working with Alex. Your kind, thoughtful, and creative teaching is amazing.
Thank you for teaching me how to play Any Way You Want It, Tighten Up, American Pie and more!
In the past few months of taking lessons with Eryn, I have already seen my voice transform. Beyond being friendly and fun, she is extremely perceptive and has a really natural musicality. So, she has the ability to hone in on what’s going on, help me bring me to new understandings, and spark my inspiration.
I was looking to find the confidence to sing around a campfire but I found so much more than that.
I found a true teacher with a heart of gold and the patience of a saint.
Kim was able to bring out something in me that I knew was inside but never had the courage to express.
If you have ever thought there might be a little voice in you that dreamed to be more, Kim will help you find it.
