Matt studied at Silver Music Studios for over 6 years. Here is what the lad has been up to since graduating H.S. and Silver Music Studios. Four years pass, Matt has graduated from Lebanon Valley College in Annville, PA with a degree in Music Recording Technology. Our resident guitar hero is also lead player in an original funk rock band called Anthony Lattanze Band (ALB). They are scorching up the local and national scene.

Matt has run sound everwhere from the Rose Tree Park Summer series to jobs with big Sky Audio in Springfield. Matt has made us very proud. In closing, we wish Matt and his fiancee the very best in their years ahead. "Carry on you wayward son". Sorry, I couldn't resist.

Teacher Spotlight

Jami, native to the Broomall area, makes us proud to have her aboard our Musical ship.

A bit of a Broadway buff, Jami also brings her pop/rock, blues and classical training in when called upon. Her light hearted nature makes her easy to take criticism from, and you will get the essentials.......breathing techniques, intonation and repertoire needed.

You can catch Jami at Mrs. Marty's on Thursday evenings or with the Pops singing her little heart out. Whether you wish to be humiliated on American Idol or sing in a band, Jami will take you on the best path.

See what all the buzz is about. Jami instructs on Wednesdays and Fridays in Broomall.
