Here’s what our students and their parents are saying about Hollywood Academy of Music (http://www.hollywoodacademyofmusic.com):

I am so thrilled with the instruction my son is receiving from the studio. I find it astounding that each child receives such individualized guidance, because it is very important in teaching to be open to what each child brings to the table in order to help them blossom. I am so grateful that this is happening for my son.
~ Leah Nall

I have taken guitar lessons for many years and from many instructors, but I've found these lessons to be the most rewarding. I've learned a tremendous amount in areas covering technique, improvisation, scales, music theory, songwriting, and live performance. The environment is relaxed and fun, but structured with explicit weekly goals that ensure you're getting where you want to be.
~ James Lee

From the very start, my lessons have been tailored to my personal abilities, interests, and musical tastes...not to mention being lots of fun! The regular recitals provide something to work towards and are wonderful opportunities to perform in front of others. I highly recommend Hollywood Academy of Music to music lovers of all ages!

If you are a drummer and you have a problem, issue, dilemma, etc....with your playing, technique, reading - now you can email me with your question and I will help you find the best way for you to deal with your situation for FREE. This includes odd time signatures, tuning, studio tips, click issues (on top of the beat, on the beat,behind the beat) ,stage fright, no focus, lack of creativity and anything that is stopping you from being the drummer you wanna be.
This is a FREE service and there is NO BS. It works like that:
You email me with your question-I help you out with it and we move on. You get to be a better drummer and I get you to know my name as the guy who helped you out. We both win. If you wanna study with me after that - great. If not you can feel free to contact me and ask me again should you run into another problem - this is not a one time thing.
I have done this before and it really works because sometime all we need is "that one thing" to put us back on the right track and get us rolling.

My reason for doing this is simple (just being honest): I am new to town and I wanna let the drummer community know that I can actually help and have you see and hear for yourself the difference I can make in your playing by doing what I say I will do and not just talk about it.
RESULTS are the only thing that matters and everything else is just an empty promises.
So here is your chance to get better and find out if you are realy serious about your playing.

I played and studied drums for over 35 years and was one of the top teachers at Seattle Drum School and Creative Music Adventures - the top music schools in the Northwest - with more than 350 students in the past 7 years alone and I hope that I can help you be a better drummer.

WARNING: Everything I suggest and recommend will require work on your part. So if you are looking for a magic pill, short cut, a trick that will make you better overnight, please don't waste my time and let me spend my time helping drummers who want to get better because they love what they do and understand what it takes to master their instrument.

The Family Shocks Bio
Members
Dave Pression: Keyboards ,Vocals 21
Violet Vineyard: Bass 21
Ryan Ranson : Guitar 22
Russ Insane: Drums 21

The Family Shocks formed in 2007 when Dave Pression ,June Gloom and best friend Adam Angst decided after drinking lots of Jolt Cola and listening to TSOL, Alice Cooper ,Billie Holiday and the Virgin Prunes to start a band to express themselves and start their evil plot to take over the world.
They then met Violet Vineyard who’s real name is Sashelle Hedrick who played bass in Mosquito and Horrors Of Toledo and they had mutual musical tastes and love for Pizza and cheesecake.
The Family Shocks play a blend of Punk ,Industrial ,Post Punk ,Gothic ,Indie Rock , Rock all blended into one pot .The outcome is an energetic angst ridden ride on a crooked roller coaster that is a sound like Billie Holiday ,The Cramps ,Johnny Cash ,Interpol, Killing Joke meets Tiny Tim meets Don Ho .
The Family Shocks are located in Orange County and have played locally at The Vault 350,DiPiazzas ,Hogue Barmichaels ,Ultra Longue ,Doll Hut, Knitting Factory ,The Roxy , and opened for The Deadly Syndrome ,Dusty Rhodes and the Little River band, Penus Flytrap , Frankenstein and others …..
They have a record coming out on new label Vamped Records www.myspace.com/vampedrecord which is run by Sashelle’s parents Lisa Christine and Sash former promoters of Hot Pants atr Mr.Ts Bowl who booked the famous Breeders reunion in 2001 with the other members of the Pixies watching and who are former teen runaways and musicians who were homeless when they met in Los Angeles and a year later had Sashelle.They worked at legendary Los Angeles Clubs Scream and Cathouse,The Krypt ,The Olympic and more .
Their debut is a 12 song album with such titles as “Spanking Babies” ,”Transexual” ,”Everything Ends”,”Stepdad” and “ All eyes on me just to name a few.
June Gloom and Adam Angst have been replaced by Ryan Ransom on guitar who Violet and Dave met at a Palm Reading in and Russ insane on drums and their lineup is a rejuvenated tornado ready to take your town.
Dave Pression is a very shy person who turns into this Iggy like person once he hits the stage .
He is a very serious person with a twisted sense of Humour and he is a one of a kind character and not one of your average Orange County kids. One of his favorite foods and past times is eating fresh green beans and making art out of the skins..
He is very influenced by Nick Cave(Birthday Party era) ,Edward Gorey and Ian Curtis and it reflects their music.
KXLU FM in Los Angeles has had The Family Shocks live in the studio and plays their not yet released record .
They are planning on a tour soon and a few major labels have contacted their management about possibly releasing it as a joint Vamped Records venture.

Press Release:

ANNAMERCURY

Marinated together in early 2009 as the 5 member band like blending choice seasoned spices in a culinary treasure to create rock music for the world. Although, initially each member helms from different corners of the west region of the United States. They met and formed the band while living in Seattle, WA after a consistent time of artistically crossing paths. The underlining unspoken message the men want to say with their music is: “From the basement, to all the listening and visual audiences everywhere this is for you”.

“AM” (AnnAMercury) is comprised of Brady singing lead vocals, Jeff playing drums, Robin strumming the bass, with guitars being laced by both Pete and Ryan. All five share a mutual inner passion for music and a quiet determination to be as good as they possibly can be. The music that the band chooses to create is original in nature with a savory rock-n-roll flavor. And each member contributes by drawing on their own musical backgrounds in a combination of ways to make the songs happen.

After only seven months in the making the band is currently working on finishing its first songs to be recorded as an EP late summer in the legendary London Bridge Studio. Also, be sure to look for the band to begin their live public performances this coming November 2009 with much fanfare debut.

EP release date is scheduled for November 15th 2009...You don't want to miss it! Checkout and follow the band at: (www.myspace.com/annamercurylive) & (www.reverbnation.com/annamercury)

Thank you,
ANNAMERCURY
