Heather L. says, "My daughter has been taking classes at Stook U Music for about a month, and we’ve had a great experience. They’ve been incredibly patient with her as she learns—and with me as well. When our second month started, my card was declined due to my bank issuing a new one. Instead of disrupting her lessons, they reached out to me directly and assured me that going forward they would contact me if there was ever an issue, rather than removing her from class. That level of communication and understanding really stood out. They were kind and patient throughout the entire process and even went above and beyond by helping me explore lessons for myself—offering discounts, options, and following up with zero pressure. It’s clear they genuinely care about their students and families. I highly recommend Stook U Music."See more

Lyra Studios founder Harrison Nida has done it all. From Classical in the form of the Ragazzi Boys Choir and San Francisco Orchestra, Jazz residencies at Stanford Jazz Institute and California Jazz Conservatory, a degree in Music from Fordham University, but ultimately landing as co-founder of Ska Punk band Victory Kid. Signed to Sbäm Records in Austria, Victory Kid has worked with some of the industry's best. Allan Hessler (Story Of The Year, Avenged Sevenfold, The Used) elevated the band's sound with debut record, Discernation, an ambitious, technically accomplished album. Featuring Matt Appleton (Goldfinger, Reel Big Fish, Ice Nine Kills) on horns, Discernation received over 3 million streams on Spotify and counting, as well as a record deal and tour in Germany with the Mad Caddies in 2022. Nine companions set out, including Matt on sax, Arion Salazar (Third Eye Blind) on bass, and Jonas Wolf (Eluveitie, Illumishade) on lead guitar. But Victory Kid has an ace in the hole: Catalyst, their sophomore album, is a seventeen track masterpiece. Continuing with Appleton, who wrote and recorded horns, the gang enlisted Michael Pepe (Taking Back Sunday, Set It Off, Silverstein) to produce their next project. With drums recorded at Capitol Studios (along with an acoustic track) and the rest done at Fab Factory,Catalyst, puts an even stronger foot on the line as Victory Kid squares up for success. Since then, they've toured the US, including a sold out Viper Room show in LA in 2024, and returned to Europe for a massive tour with Zebrahead, Me First and the Gimme Gimmes, and The Real McKenzies in 2025. They have shared the stage with Rancid, Dropkick Murphys, Bowling For Soup, Millencolin, Alien Ant Farm, Save Ferris, Authority Zero, Destroy Boys, Enter Shikari, The Bouncing Souls, and more! But what really sets Harrison apart is his previous teaching experience. Having taught for years at Santa Monica Malibu Unified School District, as well as giving lessons with SoundLife Academy, Harrison uses not only his experience but his collective knowledge coming from a long heritage of educators to tailor the needs of every student with attention and care.See more

Cj V. says, "Robert was incredible to work with! He did a great job understanding where I was in my guitar playing journey and tailored our lessons specifically to help me get better. He is extremely knowledgeable as a guitar player and was able to relate to all of the different types of music that I was trying to play. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking to further their guitar skills!"See more

Munjal S. says, "First, I have to thank Thumbtack for connecting me with Max as Max and I have mutually hired each other for services through Thumbtack. Max originally reached out to me for hypnotherapy, and after building a strong working relationship and genuine rapport, he stepped into the role of my guitar teacher. Learning guitar has been a lifelong dream of mine, and Max has been an incredible teacher. He’s been playing guitar for over 20 years, has studied with multiple teachers, and has performed in several bands, so his depth of experience really shows—not just in his skill, but in how he teaches. His teaching style mirrors who he is as a person: patient, understanding, flexible, thoughtful, and deeply encouraging. Within just two months, we’re already writing my first original song, which is much faster than I ever expected. I feel genuinely honored to have Max as my guitar teacher, and I give him my highest recommendation to anyone looking to learn guitar—whether you’re a complete beginner or someone wanting to go deeper."See more
