Great place for musical instruction, and your kids will perform. Our 14-yr old daughter is enrolled in the performance program. She has been taking a weekly 45 min. bass lesson and attending the 3 hr performance practice every Tuesday. It is a commitment, but our daughter can play bass !!! She likes that she practices every Tuesday with other students. There are many life lessons in learning to play with student musicians. DJ Blackrick owns the two Pittsburgh locations — Wexford and Castle Shannon. He has a staff of not just great musicians but great teachers. My only criticism is sometimes the communication can be better in regards to song assigments. Any issue we have ever had was addressed quickly. DJ is aware and hands on with his business. If you’re kid wants to learn to play music, it’s a great place. Plus, it’s just really cool.
