I really enjoy my vocal lessons! My coach Brendon is so knowledgeable and personable that our time together flies! My confidence is quickly growing thanks to the Guitar Studio. Fa-la-la-la-la!

Reached out via email to take singing lessons, as I was asked to sing at my sisters wedding. Matt immediately replied, answered all my questions and was able to get me in with Brandon. Brandon is top notch, an expert voice/singing coach, who also plays multiple instruments that he uses while teaching! He’s a true pleasure to work with. Has all kinds of fun tools in his office to make this whole singing journey a total blast. While taking singing lessons, I explained to Matt that I am new to guitar and needed lessons. He set me up with Steve and I had some great lessons with him. Steve immediately showed me some great ideas to advance my learning and I honestly never thought I would be playing this well. My sister did not get married as planned, due to an unexpected illness in the family. I then had to travel and with family now in town, I had to pause my lessons. I plan on returning to both Steve and Brandon. These are my go to guys!!! If you’re interested in learning guitar or how to sing, this is the place to be. I follow professional singing coaches on social media and I’m very impressed with Brandon. His education and teaching style is top notch and similar to these on line professionals. Quite frankly, Brandon is the bomb!!! I just cannot say enough good about him. He has a great personality and the ability to teach and have fun. I was beyond intimidated w learning to read music and Brandon just tucked that right in there and then tells you later, that you’re reading music. He teaches in a way to help you remember the important stuff. I was so nervous and he got me out of my shell and helped me to achieve what I thought was impossible. Then my guitar lessons with Steve brought it all together. Steve, an incredible guitar player (plays multiple instruments), was able to immediately show me things to improve my playing. He helped to move out of the rut I was in and unlock my fretboard, so to speak. I’m applying all that both Braden and Steve taught me, until I get back in there in the coming weeks. I want to thank Matt, Brandon and Steve for hanging in there with me when I was really going thru a bumming stage as I was learning. They helped me to understand why I was feeling the way I did and got me thru it all. Amazing team here and yes I will def be back. I can’t wait to show all my progress since I have been practicing your teachings. I am excited to learn more. If you’re on the fence about singing for an event or karaoke night, this is the place to be. If you’re interested in learning a new instrument, this is the place to be. They teach everything here piano, drums, banjo, guitar and soooooo much more. They have great equipment, excellent teaching styles and just great personalities. Matt, Brandon and Steve, I miss you guys and I’ll see you soon.

Our daughter was married 9/17/21 @ Newport Vineyards in RI. In a beautiful setting, made even more beautiful with the music performed by Matt Kearns!Moments are what make a wedding special, and Matt helped us make a few that day!So many of our guests complimented on the music for the ceremony and cocktail hour and the special sing along that Matt helped to execute, epic! People are still singing “It’s a Jolly Holiday with Mary”.Matt is so talented; you will not be disappointed! We met with him at his studio, and he helped personalize the wedding, even learning songs we requested that he had never played before. Professional, reliable, so accommodating, this is one very important wedding detail you will not have to worry about with Matt.

I work with a young man who has Down syndrome. He LOVES music more than anything else and plays drums and guitars that he has at home. He has learned to play just from instinct and from watching other people, until now! Shawn and I checked out the Guitar Studio on a whim as we drove by. Matt the owner greeted us, explained what they do and gave us a tour. I spoke openly with him to find out if he thought they could teach someone like Shawn. Matt was honest and said they did not have anyone that specialized or had a degree in special needs but thought he had an instructor that would be a good fit. A week later Shawn was enrolled for his first guitar lesson at the Guitar Studio. Steve his teacher was very patient and understanding. After the 30 minute lesson I think Steve and Shawn were equally impressed with each other. Shawn has had his second and third lesson already and it seems like a perfect fit. In the waiting area we see people of all ages (teens to adults) who are at all different levels of ability and all getting better by the week. Thank you Matt for being so welcoming that first day. We look forward to many, many more lessons in your space!!

Matt and crew played our backyard wedding and it was amazing! I do not have enough kind things to say about Matt as a professional. Due to the pandemic we had to reschedule, not once, not twice, but three times and he was accommodating each time without any frustration or question. When it came to the preparation before hand he was very quick and supportive with his responses. As for the day of the wedding, what can I say!? IT WAS PERFECT! (the weather not so much), but even in a tropical storm, Matt and his band mates showed up, kept spirits high, and played their A$$es off! If it wasn't for my wife, I would say they stole the show! ;) Interacting with the crowd, taking pictures, telling jokes, they truly were part of the night! I could go on and on about these guys, but I'll spare you, all I know is that they WILL be playing any backyard parties, family reunions, etc that we ever host. Thank you so much Matt! I wish you nothing but the best.

My son has been taking guitar and voice lessons here for almost 8 years. He has done the Rock Camps and Recording Camps every year too! Matt and his staff are like family - we are so glad we found The Guitar Studio and highly recommend it to anyone who is interested in lessons.

I used to learn here way back in the day when they were located in Coventry and the teachers were always nice and paitent with me! I can't imagine that's changed at all so I would recommend them.
