We look to the rock canon for inspiration, not simply imitation or replication.

who we are

Brought together by a love of music and performing, we have fully embraced the long-standing DIY tradition of music-making in the nation’s capital and are building a brand new music academy from the ground up.

instructor / music director Gary Isom

Gary Isom is a fantastically talented multi-instrumentalist. As a touring member of legendary metal acts Spirit Caravan, Pentagram, and The Unorthodox, he’s performed around the world. He can effortlessly switch between guitar, bass, and drums, demonstrating the skills of a lifelong musician and performer.

His positivity and passion for music inform his teaching style, where “feel” for the instrument and collaboration are key.
