We loved our 8 week session of intro to music for 3-5 year olds. My 4 year old loved spending 30…read moremins a week with Mrs. Danika. She was patient, friendly and knowledgeable. I couldn't have asked for a better teacher to help my son with his introduction to music. He is really loving music, and can not wait for the next session to start. He has made so much progress, it was beyond my expectations of what I imaged that class would have his imagination want to learn from a music stand point. Encore is located in a perfect spot off HWY 55, with its own parking lot. The cost was reasonably priced for 8 weeks of music. I really liked they offered morning and afternoon classes for this age in two locations. I also found the class ration 6:1 was the perfect size for kids this age. The building is large, lots of seating for parents, bathrooms are stocked and always clean. I would recommend this to all my friends, family. Thank you to Encore for making this place for my little one to love music at a young age!

But he is also learning so much! The Hootenanies are a great way to connect music and community and to share a love of music with others. The scheduling and times available are so flexible. We can have a crazy schedule at times with two kids going to multiple activities. There are so many appointment times available and switching our time if something comes up is super easy! This is so essential for us. Plus there are zoom options! Couldn't recommend this place more!!

These guys are incredible performers! I've heard their name mentioned over the past few years and…read morehave seen them in passing at Boise events, but last night was the first time I was able to really watch them and enjoy their talent! My friends and I walked in to Humpin' Hannah's and heard, "You shook me all night long," being played from the back of the venue and made a bee-line for the dance floor. Their website says, "The Treasure Valley's high‐energy Top 40 variety band covers the best music from every genre and decade," and I'd say this description is pretty dang accurate! They aren't the kind of band that plays background music, this is the kind of band that grabs your attention and pulls you in to the fun! While my friends and I were dancing they covered music from Katy Perry to Kenny Loggins, ACDC, and Stealers Wheel. If you've got an itch to dance, belt out your favorite songs at the top of your lungs, and just have a fun time, then you need to see these guys perform!

The Duck Club was founded as a partnership between Lori Shandro and Eric Gilbert, with help from Drew Lorona, as a means to help inject some fresh energy into the Boise music scene. Their initial collaboration was creating Treefort Music Fest in the Spring of 2012. Through that process, Megan Stoll joined the team as a full fledged partner.

The rustle and bustle of sneaking and dodging past past the crowds in the entry way could have been managed more, but alas we finally found our seats and ready for the performance to begin. The Opera was much like a cross between a symphony and a musical and all around entertaining. The singers also doubled as actors and good ones at that! I really enjoyed the live symphony playing as well, very talented musicians! Can't wait to attend my next opera!
