So I started looking elsewhere. After a lot of research I called Grosse Pointe Music Academy. The staff was very professional and was able to answer all of my questions. All of the instructors either have a degree in music or are working toward their music degree - unlike other "schools" where apparently being in a band qualifies you to teach music! The location looks and feels like a music school, with sheet music books and an understandable billing system - a far cry from whatever was going on at the other place (Axis!) where you never saw any sheet music and you felt like the manager found the instructors by cruising local bars - "hey dude, you can play guitar, do you wanna teach?" I am excited for their June recital! I would highly encourage anyone to give them a try.

Music Together is a great program, but Hummingbirds Together makes it even better with great teachers! As my daughter ages I will look to the Canton Music Academy for additional music classes as well since the teachers are of such a great caliber.

This is going to be great journey and am really looking forward to getting started. Oh Wait...ok, that was Thursday. Friday, I auditioned and joined a band (vocals), so by Sunday, I called the Center and switched to a vocal coach. Had my first session wtih Chris McCall last week and LOVE IT! Convenient parking directly across the street. The center is one block from Main Street, in downtown Ann Arbor. Classes are 30 mins, they bill you for the month upfront and I can see why. It secures your spot with your instructor and keeps people from totally flaking out on their lesson, leaving the instructor high and dry. Schedules are flexible and the people are friendly.

I was taking adult lessons with her until I wasn't able to after a back injury, but my husband signed up after I. We've all been impressed with how she's alters lessons and needs to whomever she's working with at the moment. She's always willing to try something new. Yes, even if my dorky husband wants to do the theme to some offbeat video game. Lea works with students of all ages and ranges of experience. She has high but fair expectations of all of her students, helping them achieve their goal on their instrument. Not only a teacher, but she is also an active student regularly increasing her own knowledge to pass along to others. Basically? She rocks. Go hire her. Now.

We've been prowling the aisles of Guitar Center Canton for the better part of three decades --…read morethirty years of strings, amps, and that sweet tang of new gear smell -- and not once have they dropped the ball. This week's episode was no exception. Enter Alex in guitar repair: a man who doesn't just fix guitars -- he communes with them. Friendly, professional, and grinning like someone who's already lived three lives on stage, he's the sort of tech who could restring your instrument while telling war stories from the road and still have time to hand you a piece of rock' n' roll wisdom you didn't know you needed. He took our son's 12-string Breedlove and not only gave it new strings and perfect intonation but also injected it with some intangible mojo. Advice flowed like bourbon in a backstage greenroom -- tips he picked up when he was starting, plus the sort of tricks you only earn from years in the trenches. And then there's Martin, Executive Sales & Training Manager, a stalwart presence in these hallowed halls of gear. A handshake from Martin is like plugging into a well-worn amp -- warm, familiar, and humming with the promise of something great about to happen. From the moment we walked in, it was instant service, no fuss -- the kind of attention you usually have to beg for in this cold, transactional world. Instead, we were treated like returning royalty, which, after nearly thirty years of loyalty, feels exactly right. P.S. If you want to find the real players -- the road-tested pros who've ridden the highs and lows of the circuit -- you come here. These are the salt-of-the-earth musicians, the ones who've seen the lights go up and down a thousand times and are still here, passing the torch to the next generation.
