Due to our huge success with our Academy we are delighted to announce that we have moved into new and larger premises. We now hold all our lessons and retail premises under one roof. Our retail premises still offers a wide range of musical instruments from Guitar, Accordions Fiddles and much much more. We stock a wide range of accessories, sheet music, giftware and CD's. We are also proud to be Martin and Schecter Dealers as well as supplying Casio and Yamaha products. It is important to us to offer the best possible service, whilst remaining friendly and welcoming. Andy has a wealth of experience within the world of music and is always happy to offer expert advice. We continue to be a family run business based in the heart of the Scottish Borders. We believe that price is important but almost more importantly that when you buy from us you know you will receive the best service available from the start of your order and if required well after you have received your order. We are very happy for you to contact us if you have any queries and if you are more local of course visit us where a warm welcome awaits.

Our Traditional Music Accademy is a wonderful hub of activity. We presently hold lessons for Accordion, Fiddle and Guitar. We have 3 excellent tutors that have been with us from the beginning. They have a wealth of experience as musicians and tutors. We presently have 60 plus Students and are constantly growing. Now we have moved into our larger premises we are also delighted to now be able to offer Piano/Keyboard and Harp lessons. Again the 2 tutors who are teaching these instruments have a wealth of experience in the world of music and teaching. As well as getting lessons through our Academy we also offer other activities such as monthly music sessions, workshops, and are looking to expand into summer camps and the forming an Academy Band.
