Downright Music

"If I could give Andrew 6 stars I would. I have been taking lessons- both personal and “Jam” classes with him for nearly 20 years. He is patient and effective, kind and knowledgeable. Andrew intuitively knows what level a student is at and has the ability to teach all levels effectively. The environment is supportive and friendly. He teaches you how to be a musician both individually and how to effectively play in a group setting. I went from strumming “cowboy chords” on an acoustic guitar to gigging out with my own band in professional settings. Bravo Andrew and the whole scene at Downright!!!"

"Andrew has taken my modest goals and helped me surpass them and leave them in the rearview. Playing with a group - check. Playing shows - check. Techniques I though were beyond me have started to develop. Can’t thank Andrew and Naomi enough for their low pressure approach to learning and progression. It has resonated with me, thanks guys."

"Highly recommended. Andrew is a great teacher and all round guy to learn / play music with. Wether you’re young, old, looking to improve or starting completely from scratch, I’d say this is absolutely the place to go. I’ve been taking lessons here for well over a year now and always look forward to visiting each week."

"Been taking lessons here for 11 years, teachers are great and very helpful, always trying to push you to the next level. In my time being here I've learned piano, guitar, drums, and ukulele, still I strive to learn more. If you're looking for a place to take lessons and you really want to learn, I highly recommend Downright. Don't worry about your age, no matter what age you are it's never too late or too early to learn and the teachers here will gladly help you on your journey. :)"

"Downright Music is one of the best local music lesson businesses there are! The owner Andrew is extremely talented, patient and big hearted man. My son started with zero guitar knowledge a few years ago and now he is able to perform concerts and play music terrifically. A great advantage of this school is that on the top of the weekly private lessons that they offer, Andrew creates music bands with students that are on similar music levels. Those bands also practice weekly and perform concerts, about 3-4 times per year, all organized by Downright! Another great thing about joining Downright is being in their summer Jam Camps. In these camps, kids from similar age groups and similar music skills are gathered to form a band! The band spends an entire week learning songs (since the camp is Mon-Fri), practicing them and performing a big concert with all the songs learned at the end of the camp! I have only good words to say about Andrew and the other teachers at Downright. Highly recommend!!"
