Great place for kids to take music lessons. The teachers are very good and they have an organized schedule. I wish they had more classes for other instruments besides guitar and drums, but they have lessons for instruments like saxophone, trumpet, etc. Prices are reasonable as well. read more

Love everything about this place. As someone who is a musician and also used to run a lessons and rehearsal space for Guitar Center, I can confidently say this place has it together and has the highest quality staff I've ever met in the business. I also love their music shop and the awesome selection. read more

Excellent, kid-friendly teachers for piano and guitar. The location is great and this place is very big with many different teachers to chose from. read more

Can't believe it's been a year since my first review and nothing has changed. In fact, things have only continue to be awesome. I recently went through a family loss and left Music Freqs MIA for a bit, just skipping my weekly lessons until I shared the news. Layla was so so understanding!!! The whole team is awesome. Don't interact with many people outside of emails and Drew but it's such a wonderful and safe place to try something new regardless of age or background. Not to mention Drew is dope as ever and my lessons have become a place I find so much joy in. read more

This rarely happens anymore. Spoke with Johnny at Music Freqs over a year ago about a 12 string Takamine that is near impossible to find. So today, Johnny calls and shares he secured one waiting at his shop today for me. So when I arrived, it was the model I have wanted for quite some time. Just another reason to support the independent Guitar retailers instead of the giant retailers that only care to sell the inventory they have in stock. BTW, Johnny's shop is beautiful and offers high quality gear so stop by for a look. Johnny thank you, for the professional follow-though!!!! read more

This place is seriously cool. They have 3 different buildings. One for lessons, one for performances and a gear shop. Their guitars are unique and different than the generic models you'd find at your local Guitar center. The guy in the gear shop was super friendly and I can't recommend this place enough for guitar enthusiasts read more

I wouldn't come here at all. I went once and it was a very boring place. It lacked true authenticity. Never the less I wouldn't pay for expensive studio time here I rather go to the valley. Plus they will charge ridiculous prices at times for not much work. This place is lucky it is still open, I do not know how... In time I won't be surprised if they go out of business. They also are rarely ever open even though their schedule is open. Plus manager or whatever the 5'5'' little man complex dude is, he's a rude little guy. Anyhow they trolled me and followed me and pestered me after this review trying to seem professional. "We take things very seriously" "give us a call" No I do not wish to speak with you. Thank you. I took my business elsewhere and we are doing well. Thanks. read more

See all

The most nice people I have ever drummed with they helped me so much I come here every month and I wish it was every week. The gift shop has everything I need with cheap prices read more

I was shocked by how rude the front desk person was to me and the unprofessional service I got. Please keep that in the back of you mind when deciding where to send your kids read more

My band just recorded at rock city. We were able to get A demo with them for a very reasonable price. Max Dickinson is the recording engineer at rock city. With out his guidance and experience the final product would not be anything it is today. Max is a asset to this establishment and will be the reason I'm giving rock city 5 stars. read more

We are blessed to have such a wonderful team of instructors here at Music Freqs. We started our daughter at 4 years of age on piano and just wanted to make it fun for her. After a little over a year she is playing many simple songs, can read notes naturally, shows off songs she learns from other friends and is progressing so well. The most difficult part of it is being a patient parent and make sure it's all about them. Stick with it and if they act up or grow disinterested take a break for a month or so. She wanted to come back and missed it which is what you want to see in sports and music. Currently we are working with Jeremy and Hector early on. Both are amazing to start with. read more

Us here at Lion City Recording Studio in Ventura absolutely support Rock City They help the scene and the community they are always very polite and helpful. There venue is cool For shows as well. read more

Such a great experience visiting this place. Great gear at great prices, and everyone working there were extremely helpful. Such a hidden gem for any music enthusiast. Come by and check this place out when you're in Camarillo. read more

I have been a part of the team over here for maybe a pinch over 5 years and hope I never leave. the management truly cares about all of us working there and have gone above and beyond to show it. everyone has their heart and head in the right place, making it nothing but enjoyable. I can't recommend this place enough and not because I work here but because I genuinely believe it's a good place. I can't imagine any other structure with the variety they offer with lessons, programs, staff, studio and countless other things they offer. this county is lucky to have this place read more

Love everybody there! My child learned so much and always looks forward to being there for guitar lessons.

I had the friendly service and got exactly what I needed. The store is fabulous and the staff is wonderful. I originally went to buy a few hundred dollars worth of product and was treated so poorly. I decided that I will never set foot in a Guitar Center again. In the end, it all worked out because I am so glad that I found Music Freqs in Camarillo. Please support local and good companies. Thank you, Music Freqs!!!! read more

I have been coming to shows at Rock City for a few years now, and all I can say is positive things about the venue. The shows are entertaining but never too crazy and dangerous. They also have rehearsal rooms for music students and a venue to preform! A great way for beginning artist to get an idea of what performing and booking shows is all about. However, it is a non-drug/alcohol venue which may turn the wild crowd away, but that's not always a bad thing. This is one of the few places in town you can feel safe to leave your kids for a show and they will have a great time. And if you are 21, and would really like a drink before/after a show, there is a bar right next door. They also have a lot of interesting group and solo classes... including singing, piano, songwriting and a rock band workshop. If you want to pick up a new instrument, play at an open mic, or check out a local band... THIS is the place to be. read more

My son takes piano lessons with Jeremy. It's been great experience so far. After few sessions ,he already plays some songs and knows his notes. He looks forward to his piano lessons every time. Impressive! Also, Layla is very nice and sweet with helping to make appointments . Love this place! read more

For what this place is it was okay. I went for a concert for one band that I really like and they were awesome! IMPENDING DOOM! :) This place is an all ages venue so they don't have alcohol which is fine but they didn't have nachos or any food to snack on... which is just them losing money. I tried to call twice the day of the show during the hours when they are open and no one answered and there was no voice mail option. There was a fight in the concert and not really security so those guys should have been kicked out but they got to stay... No other violence broke out but I really don't like those 'hardcore' dancers. By the end of the night there were little drops of blood in the urinal and around it which lets me know it's not a very good place for cleanliness. I appreciate that this place has live music, supports local bands but they need more staff and more ways to generate revenue. My last complaint the first bands playing got 20 minutes then 25 for bands that played later but the band I went to see only got 30 minutes... Usually headlining bands get 45-60 minutes so ditch the pay to play format and let the better bands get there due time! read more

-For Everyone- Just a great place to go to! Has an awesome vibe, and the staff is amazing! They've got a great sound system in the live room! It's an all ages venue! No crazy $10 parking in LA, this place is located right in the middle of Camarillo, there are restaurants and a bar right next door to the venue. -For Musicians and Bands- They support all the bands that play here. They also have a lot of room for the bands to hang out and to be right next to their gear. Every band has their own room to put their gear in. They also have a professional Recording System and they can record your music and live shows, as well as film your live shows. -For a Band to play all for only $150: -They do a professional interview with you a few weeks to a month before your show, so you can promote your show, and they will post it on their website as well to help bring locals -They give you a free Pizza for your room, so bands don't have to worry about where to eat after they play -Selling 15 tickets at $10 and you have paid for the gig! Easy as that, not bad at all * 5 Stars! Because I always have a great time when I perform or go to see shows there, and they just want to help support and keep music alive! * read more

Amazing staff! Amazing venue! Most of all gives kids a safe place to go & not only play music, but listen to bands play! Keep up the great work!!! read more

I've driven out here from LA to 2 shows. It's a cool spot- the stage is pretty big and there's an intimate sized open area. Not good for crowd surfing or stage diving tho (the floor plan isn't narrow enough). There's a really cheap bar next door which is a plus not to mention free parking! read more

I was extremely excited to see a show here and spend a nice Friday evening with some friends listening to great music. Much to my dismay, Rock City cancelled the show that night due to issues with communication with the artists, yet it appears they put in minimal effort into allowing the show to go on, or communicating in a professional manner. Their manager's interactions towards the artists that night appeared extremely unprofessional, aggressive, and threatening, which made me question the legitimacy of their claim that they had communicated effectively with the artists.The venue and the promoter need to have a more efficient line of communication, clearly. I will never recommend this location to anyone I have any respect for. read more

My kids are loving their build-a-band workshop! The boys really connected with Austin and Justin, guitar and drums respectively. I highly recommend them for the Rock experience. read more

I rented out Rock City for my 16th birthday party and every single person there had been nothing but extremely helpful and kind. They helped set up and break down and made sure my experience there was super awesome and the best party ever!! I have grown up going there for weekend shows and they are so organized, have amazing lights, amazing animations on the walls, and everyone there is so kind. I can't wait to go there again and highly recommend going there to enjoy some music!! read more

We took our son to Rock City for their sonic league program. He was a little apprehensive before we went, but has had an awesome experience! Everyone on staff is friendly and super helpful. Chris is his guitar teacher and has done an amazing job with him! Justin coaches the band and has done a great job too! Keep it up Rock City! read more

Let me first begin by saying I love Yelp because it's a great platform to share honest and objective feedback. My son and I have been going to Rock City Studios for quite some time and have been more than pleased with the teachers and instruction he receives. My husband is kind of a music snob and even he is totally thrilled with how Rock City Studios has musically developed our son in all aspects of learning new instruments and playing live. Places like this are simply a reflection of the owner. Very clean, friendly , great equipment and fantastic teachers ! If it were closer we'd be there every day of the week. read more

This guy ed f sounds really pick clean bathrooms at a rock concert are hard to find this place is awesome great for local kids to work on music its more than a place to see a show its not about the money there its about the community support it! read more

Rock Studios is amazing, they went above and beyond for my family to see a concert, not only does the staff treat you like family they have a wonderful venue that creates a intimacy between you and the band . I cannot thank them enough for everything that they did. I would highly recommend anyone who lives in SoCal to come and see a concert here. read more

Love this place! Great vibe, fun atmosphere, and musicians/instructors are so good with the kids! I highly recommend for music/singing lessons and/or even a night out! read more

My 10 year old daughter just took her first ukelele lesson and was asking if they had any ukelele's she could rent and one of the workers said "my uncle told me to give this one away to someone who needs one" and they gave it to her. She was beyond excited. This place seems great so far!!!! read more

The best place to celebrate my birthday last year. It was a surprise from my wife, great music, great show, great staff.

Great Venue! Great Staff! Our church started our vision gatherings at Rock City before we moved to a more permanent location and they hooked us up! I love this place and it will forever be one of our favorite businesses here in Camarillo. "Support Local Music" read more

My six-year-old son has been taking guitar lessons, and my nine-year-old daughter has been taking piano/voice lessons at Rock City Studios for the past few months, and I am thrilled with the progress they have made in such a short time. The studio and its staff are incredibly professional, and the variety of lessons they offer is quite impressive. I wish we would have heard about Rock City as soon as we moved to the area. Not only do my kids now think music is cool, but they are also excited to practice and attend their lessons each week. I highly recommend checking them out for musicians of any level. read more

My sons have been taking drum classes here for about a year now, and Music Freqs has become family to us. David and Justin have made such an impact on my kids, in a super difficult time in our lives. They each have made amazing connections to my boys and they REALLY take their time and put their all into each and every lesson. Having a foundation of music as they grow has been priceless. We are a homeschooling family and the addition of music lessons has been a game changer. Anyone who has young kids knows it's challenging to keep their attention and make learning fun but the Music Freqs family has mastered it. The owners are super present and treat you like family, the instructors are just RAD and really connect with the kids, (even my 'too cool for school' preteen just adores his teacher and has come out of his shell SO MUCH). Just the entire staff is so awesome. (Shoutout to Layla! The friendliest and most easy to work with admin in the universe!) I honestly don't do reviews often.. but I feel like screaming from the rooftops how much I love this little gem I've found. Invest in your kids future and don't sleep on this place! Moms, you'll thank me later! Love you Music Freqs! read more

It's so cool to have a place like Rock City in Camarillo! Love the people. They inspire my kids to be creative.

One of my favorite venues in Ventura County! I was recently there for the Boris show earlier this month and was blown away! Awesome sound, professional lighting rig and even stage and wall projections made this a really cool show! Will definitely be going back! read more

Big shout out to all the Rock City people and all of their students. I've been to several of there events and been super impressed. Yesterday many of their students performed at the Strawberry Festival. Fantastic but most impressive were the people that work at Rock City. So devoted. Setting up all the equipment, making all the sound checks, cheering the kids on and getting the crowd involved playing drums, etc. they do such a good job at giving their students confidence in performing at each of their levels. If your kids have any interest in music at all check them out! read more

My neighbor children went to Rock city for piano lessons. My neighbor used Heidi and loved her. The receptionist who answered the phone when I called to inquire was rather rude. When I asked if Heidi had some time for my children's lessons she abruptly said "she doesn't work here any more". That's odd because my neighbor still has Heidi has their teacher. I believe I will be going elsewhere for my children's piano lessons!!! read more
