Music Lessons

---

Our Mission... To preserve and grow our bluegrass music heritage and to serve our community. To teach, train, and equip people to play music that not only will benefit their mental and physical health but to serve others in charitable ways for a healthier community. To document and create a template to share this with other communities.

The goal of  these passionate educators is to provide an environment where students can learn the art of classical and traditional music. It is the hope through the study of these musics each student will gain a sense of self-discipline, self-confidence, responsibility, teamwork and find a voice both in music and in life. These goals will be achieved through cooperation of student, teacher and parent to help the students gain a solid understanding of these concepts and progress as far they want to go in music.

These Professional Studio Artist (PSA) courses will prepare individuals for careers as independent studio artists, business owners, designers, performers, and studio technicians. The curriculum will cover technical and performance classes in a variety of disciplines coupled with business, marketing, and management courses.

Music lessons available from various local musicians, including Mike Hobson, Chris Abell, Nick O'Nan, Latasha Shemwell & Sisa Watkins.

Chris and Nick will be teaching Electric and Acoustic Guitar. Sisa will be teaching Piano. Latasha Shemwell is our outstanding Vocal Instructor.  Mike Hobson is our Bluegrass Instructor teaching Guitar, Banjo, Dobro, Mandolin, Ukulele, Upright and acoustic Bass.
