Update (2024): This company is still impacting my credit. After explaining to them that I never signed a contact and was going to cancel lessons, they deferred me to a collection agency. I would stay away from this company and their questionable business practices. Revised: I almost never leave negative reviews. Be careful before signing anything (underlined) as they use legally binding, multi year contracts. My wife signed it unknowingly, and our (both) credit is still recovering. We now use private lessons instead.

My now 11 year old daughter had been taking individual singing lessons with Gabe and group lessons over the last two years.

Linda individually tailors exercises to further advance her skills. We are excited about her future at Septien!

I came to Damon with precisely no vocal experience. Not even a Google search on how to sing. I knew NOTHING. But I had so much fun just showing up and trying new things this year. Damon is the most welcoming, accepting, and encouraging human being I've literally ever met. I never ever felt even a smidge inadequate with him, even though I knew and could do so little starting out. He led me to breakthrough after breakthrough with my voice and music as a whole. I'm by no means a professional, but that was never the goal. The goal was to have fun, challenge myself, learn something different, and feel secure in my voice. I accomplished all of that under Damon's knowledgeable guidance. Today, performing for the first time in front of anyone besides Damon, was just one more breakthrough to add to the stack, and by now, I'm not even surprised. This has been an absolutely magical ride.

I will regret for the rest of my life ever allowing my granddaughter near Studio 7 under Chris…read moreSeay. It was a horrible, inappropriate environment that caused real emotional and developmental harm to her. Her therapist was legally required to file a CPS report. That says everything. We honestly thought she was out of business and gone. But like a master manipulator -- and yes, like a roach -- she keeps resurfacing under new names, trying to pull in the next batch of kids. One of the most disturbing parts was her so-called "spiritual armor" class, where she encouraged kids to share private secrets they hadn't told anyone else. That crossed a major line. It was creepy, inappropriate, and manipulative -- and it had no place in a children's program. She will do or say whatever it takes to get your money -- and once she has it, she'll spin elaborate lies to keep it, while delivering nothing but harm and none of what you paid for. While some parents stayed quiet -- often the ones getting free perks -- many of us got our kids out fast. I only wish we had done it sooner. If you're even considering this place, please do your research. She has operated under multiple names, including Chris A. Kahanek, Chris A. Seay, Chris Ann Smith, Chris Ann Seay, and Chris Ann Smith Seay. The studio's website is www.studio7performance.com. Ask questions. Talk to the families who left. Don't mistake polish for safety -- and don't mistake charm for integrity.

Tone Shop is one of the best guitar stores in DFW, if not the country. The staff are really…read morefriendly and very helpful. Tone Shop stocks a wide variety of new and used instruments, as well as amps, pedals, etc. In terms of new guitars, you can expect to find Fender, Gibson, PRS, and Reverend - and maybe more - for electric. Taylor, Martin, Gibson, and more for acoustic. The cool thing though is they carry a range of instruments in these brands. You can buy anything from a Squier, Epiphone, or PRS SE up to a Core PRS or even a Custom Shop Fender or Gibson. And I don't just mean they have a single custom shop guitar on display, they have like a whole wall of high end Fenders and another for Gibsons. It's kind of fun to go in there and see all those amazing guitars. They've got guitars that cost hundreds and guitars that cost thousands. While they might not always have the same range of brands as the bigger store (no new Schecter, EBMM, etc.), they have an amazing selection within the brands they do carry. There's something for everyone. They have a decent selection of pedals, including Boss, Strymon, and more. A small selection of pickups too. I bought one of my favorite guitar straps from them. They've really got a lot of cool stuff! They also have sales periodically, and some great deals can be had! If you sell used gear to them or trade in toward something else, their prices aren't going to be as high as you could get selling it yourself online - but are fair for selling to a retail store. I think you can do a "sell in store" deal through Reverb with them too. I've been really happy with the guitars I've bought from them, and the shopping experience. They also do repairs, pickup swaps, etc. I'm pretty sure this location also offer PLEK. I've never done that myself, but I'm kind of curious about it and might take a guitar in go through the machine some day. Sometimes they host events at the store too. Overall I'd highly recommend Tone Shop in Addison.
