Maxwell M. says, "Adam inspired me to play everyday and provided me with enough material to keep me engaged with the guitar. He personalized my experience by having me choose the songs that I wanted to play and he could teach me ANY style. He is truly an expert. He also repaired my guitar. Before I wouldn’t even play it because it sounded terrible but after he finished with it, that guitar became my favorite sounding guitar, he’s phenomenal at repairs. It’s far better than when I bought it brand new. He was always looking out for me making sure that I had everything I needed to play my best. Adam opens his home and heart and tool box for his students he’s super selfless and a grateful person. He taught me everything I wanted to know. Adam did me so many favors you will not regret working with him."See more

Sophie S. says, "Tristan is an absolute joy to work with, and I can't recommend him highly enough for his professionalism, attitude, energy, and of course, the music he makes. Professionalism: Tristan is a prompt communicator who listened attentively to our ideas. Not only did he learn the initial music we had in mind, but he also researched similar music at our request and made suggestions that led to an even more beautiful final piece for our wedding ceremony. He collaborated seamlessly with the other musician we hired, and even though they didn't know each other it sounded as if they'd been performing together for years! He communicated clearly and promptly with our DJ, who has since reached out to tell us he would like to work with Tristan again (and we see why!). Attitude and energy: Tristan is an upbeat, gentle and kind young man with a positive approach to problem-solving. We had a few technical concerns and last-minute tech hiccups on the day of our wedding, and Tristan rolled with the punches so that no one could tell. The product (that music!): Tristan's guitar-playing skills are exquisite. His attention to detail shines most in his music; even in a large outdoor space, he played with intricate finger work and dynamics that made his songs float through the space. His playing is emotional, thanks in part to his expertise in choosing pieces that are moving and meaningful, as well as his ability to connect to the music and play with intention. Tristan didn't just play the music for our ceremony - his creative and collaborative spirit enhanced the entire feel of the day and made it even more magic for us. Thank you, Tristan!!"See more

Melissa C. says, "I’ve been taking guitar lessons from 615 Sound Academy, and it’s been awesome! The instructor is super friendly, patient, and really knows how to explain things in a way that makes sense. Each lesson feels relaxed but I still learn a ton every time. I started out not knowing how to play any chords, and now I can actually play full songs and understand what I’m doing. The lessons are personalized to what I want to learn, which keeps it fun and motivating. If you’re thinking about learning guitar, I definitely recommend these lessons — you’ll actually look forward to going each week!"See more

Ryan L. says, "I worked with Paul on a Christmas show is 2013. I was his guitar tech, and helped to make sure his equipment was set up properly. He was the lone lead guitar player, and played alongside 12 vocalists. The show was really nice, and Paul was a pleasure to work with. He practiced very well, as evident by how prepared he was, and he played great overall. I even learned a thing or two as a long-time guitar player myself just from being his tech."See more
