Dave Brandt is terrific. He chooses relevant songs my kids really enjoy learning & practicing, and he is super-encouraging of their strengths while challenging & stretching them in the areas they need to improve. He is incredibly knowledgeable. Each of my 4 kids' skills have improved greatly because of their lessons, and they all love Mr. Dave!

Dave is energetic and positive. He helps our child push to the next level!

K's confidence has strengthened since her first lesson with Dave. Dave has an incredible ability to make you feel at ease and has a positive take on critiquing. I would highly recommend Dave as a vocal and keyboard instructor.

Grace (vocal-singing) and Dylan (keyboard) have been getting lessons at RockShow for a few years now. Dave, Kelly, and their family/staff are wonderful! My kids have learned so much. Dave works with each of them to perform their very best. Grace has really blossomed under Dave's guidance. Couldn't ask for a better instructor.
