Kids + Adults
This is what we do every semester...
Private Lessons
2 months

Lesson content will vary depending on your abilities and goals.
In a nutshell, we’ll learn how to read music and play your favorite songs. If you’re open to it, we’ll sing them, too.
Record It
1 month
A big element of being a musician these days is recording yourself.
Most musicians can make a decent demo of themselves to share with bandmates or get a gig. Once you record your concert song, it’ll get mixed together with your bandmates and posted to Spotify/Apple Music! Who knows? Maybe music engineering is your spark.

Band Practice
1 month

The month before the concert is a blast.
The whole band gets together twice weekly to rehearse for the gig. This builds confidence and gives everyone a chance to get to know each other.
Live Gig
May 8th/ December 4th 2021
Time for the big gig!
We have an epic gig at a local music venue that showcases all of our bands. Every band plays a couple songs on the big stage and shows off their new skills. Professional photos are provided. Time commitment is 1 hour.


" Music on Magnolia provides a safe, fun way for kids to explore music and instruments. The teachers meet kids where they are, giving lessons and assignments appropriate to the age and ability of the students. The lessons aren't limited to traditional classical instruction. The ‘recitals’ are actually shows at local venues. The kids team up to form bands and play pop/rock/country songs in a real music venue, for a real audience. My son loves it! "

" I’m an adult who wanted to learn guitar, but didn’t know anything about music. Since I started lessons at Music on Magnolia, I’ve learned how to read sheet music, understand music theory, how to play in a band with other musicians, and last but not least, how to enjoy the musical journey. "

" Where to start?! Michael is both an amazingly talented musician, as well as an equally talented teacher. He is able to connect with students in a way that allows him to not only teach the material, but also foster a love of music within them. We're so grateful to have found him and for the growth we’ve witnessed in our son as a musician. "

" My 9 year old son has been with Music on Magnolia for over 3 years now, learning piano and drums. Not only is he learning how to read music, but he loves the process. Music on Magnolia knows how to inspire a child and maximize their potential. "
