Mike and Sandy are incredible people who have devoted so much to this program. They started it from…read morethe ground up 10 years ago and deserve all the stars in the world. They are the most down to earth people and are completely committed to their students. This is why their students return summer after summer. Its incredible to see the kids grow each season. The experience that the kids get in being a part of a band, having practices and then performing live sets at different venues is such a unique and one of a kind offering. I would recommend RBU to all davis parents. Trust me, you will love seeing the smile on their faces as they rock out to their favorite songs!!

My 13 year old son loves Rock Band University. He has attended 4 or 5…read more sessions over a 2 year period and has grown more confident with his skills and stage performance. He even agreed to sing lead on several songs the last session he attended. My son has taken guitar lessons for a couple of years but it was like pulling hair to get him to practice, until we put him in RBU. Mike the owner is great with the kids and places them with other students who are at their level. The culmination of the session is a performance which includes all of the bands with their parents and friends attending. You will be happily surprised to see your child's inner rocker shine through.

My Taylor GTe Blacktop's action was way high as I bought it used on Reverb. I was thinking the…read moreworse which on Taylor guitars is a neck reset. I took it in to David. It took a little over a week but it was worth it. He immediately put it in an enclosed humidifier as my 2022 GTe was a bit dry which can change the geometry of the neck. He restrung it with the strings Taylor recommends and did a truss rod adjustment. He treated the neck and body with his treatments and it looked like new. Then back in the humidifier again to settle the guitar down. When I picked it up, it was like it came out of the factory. I highly recommend you take your Taylor guitar to David as he is factory trained and Taylor authorized luthier.

His supportive, encouraging spirit has allowed her to thrive, and truly he's become more of a mentor than just an instructor.

We feel so lucky that he's part of our daughter's life and wholeheartedly recommend him to anyone who is looking to learn how to play.

Chris is awesome! It's been almost a year since my son switched to guitar and is learning from him…read more He's very good with kids, both the unenthused and the hyperactive kids. MU other son is learning ukulele from him as well! He's a total rocker who is able to meet the kids at whatever level they are at. I am very thankful for his effort and skillset. He's one of the better music teachers I've seen my kids learned from (you don't want no diva music teacher). He can teach rock as well as even some gospel/carols. I'm musically retarded but his teaching methods seem very technical and engaging and fun. Thanks Mr. Chris! I think he is well worth every penny he charges which isn't very much.

Of the 5-7 vocal teachers I've had, Daniel is HANDS-DOWN the best, which is why I've chosen to stay…read morewith him for 6 years (last 4 years are online lessons). He's organized, committed to growing his knowledge of voice physiology and the newest techniques, flexible, and understanding. His scientific explanations about the structure of the vocal folds helped me develop an internal sense of what's actually happening in my throat when I sing. This, paired with his explanations, built my independence/toolbox so that I can troubleshoot even when he's not there! These days, we can work together collaboratively in our lessons, because of how much he's taught me. Daniel is also extremely adaptable regarding vocal and physical needs, and his versatility has meant that I've grown in ways I never thought I could before. I thought I'd always have a tight, strained voice and limited range, and now I'm hitting notes with an ease I only dreamed was possible. Awesome, awesome, awesome teacher. Well worth the price he charges. Biggest regret was wasting a year and a half in Davis with another teacher when I could have been with him.
