I've been attending Seeds of Music for over two years now, and I can confidently say this school has been life-changing—not just for me, but for my family. As an adult learning drums, I never imagined I’d be playing in a real band, performing live on stage in front of an audience.

Chris does a wonderful job of getting the bands into events and venues including the Danville Independence Day parade, an online showcase during pandemic protocols, and an indoor/evening gig at the Bankhead Theater. Kind Viper has grown tremendously as a band, playing different and more challenging music, and harmonizing on vocals with multiple singers. The other bands that play at the shows have also seen loads of growth, and
