We offer your family a casual and creative atmosphere for Lessons, Musical instrument purchases, Entertainment and Learning. This is our 40th year in business!

WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT?

A beautiful Café with fully-equipped stage, serves as the heartbeat of our business. It’s a casual meeting place for musicians, music lovers and students alike. We host our own recitals and student concerts as well as offer weekly performance opportunities for the area's entire music community in front of a supportive and encouraging audience, at our family-friendly Thursday night Open Mic. It’s a great place for students to hone their performance skills and get inspired. (Entertainment & Cafe on temporary pause during COVID.)

It's truly our staff and vibrant music community that helps the magic happen!

It's Rick, Bob, Chris and RJ (all professional musicians themselves) who provide decades of product knowledge and top notch CUSTOMER SUPPORT.

MUSIC LESSONS
