Kevin is a consummate professional. I had some maintenance performed on my horns last year, and…read morethat experience versus working with Kevin has been night-and-day in terms of professionalism, helpfulness, and pricing. I contacted NGHW for the first time recently about fitting new valves into my tuba--not only was Kevin's work *extremely* affordable and of a high quality, but I actually learned quite a bit in the process. My horn literally plays better than it did brand new, thanks to him. He was even kind enough to further tweak the repair a few weeks later, free of charge. I will be seeking the assistance of North Georgia Horn Works for all of my intensive brass repairs from this point forward!

Tricia Grey, MM is the best vocal coach I've ever worked with -- truly…read more I've studied with major names in the past, but no one has helped me access my voice like Tricia. What makes it even more incredible is that she's coaching me at a time in my life when I am not at my best -- due to a serious illness that left me with long-term complications affecting my voice. I worked with other coaches when I was at my physical peak... and yet Tricia far surpasses them in every way. She just has that special je ne sais quoi. She's incredibly smart, intuitive, and dedicated -- and you can see all of that in her book, which is one of the most useful vocal guides I've ever read, no matter where you are in your vocal journey. Her Sing Like a Star method is scientific, empowering, and meets you exactly where you are. She helps you build from the inside out -- breath, tone, emotion, everything. I'm hitting notes I never thought I'd reach again. If you're on the fence, take the leap. Tricia is rare. She's the real deal.

For 2024, I decided to find a vocal coach to improve my singing ability for writing, recording…read moredemos, and for use on my own productions. I asked around inside my peer circle in the Grammy chapter and ironically no one could recommend a vocal coach. I was fortunate enough to find Tricia and SLaS through an internet search and was pleased that SLaS could work with me via Zoom since I'm thousands of miles away from Atlanta. It's easy to under appreciate (or not understand) how much a course and coach can help us gain control over vocal muscles, larynx position, breathing, and breath support so that we improve our craft and more fully develop our personal singing style. Just like any fine performing artist or serious athletic endeavor, improvement in ability to sing isn't magic. It requires training (WITH EXERCISES), coaching, guidance, and feedback. SLaS and Tricia does all of these things via a very well thought out course that is designed to work on the common issues male and female vocalists arrive with at their doors (or in my case Zoom camera). I've gone from being/believing I'm a baritone only singer always wishing I had a wider ranger to be more versatile to HAVING a much wider range AND at the same time a far more POWERFUL and stable singing voice. I hardly recognize my new voice!...but I am sure loving it and can't wait to see what the next months hold as Tricia continues to guide and coach me to new places. When I think of vocalists I've worked with in the studio environment, almost all of them could have used the help SLAS provides; including one who came to the studio with her personal vocal coach!! Kudos to everyone who worked to put the SLAS training together and to Tricia who is helping those willing to work and put in the time to be much better vocalists and performers then they were before signing on with SLaS.

Steve put me on an 80's model Peavey Bandit, made in USA, and perfect for what I need for under $90. Exactly what I needed and it was indeed Dirt Cheep. THANKS STEVE!!!!
