My daughter has been going here for almost a year, since her first birthday. The classes are amazing, enough repetition that the kids learn what to expect and feel comfortable with the routine, and enough new material to keep them interested and engaged. Miss Mary is fantastic, all the kids love her. Every teacher I have met is patient and wonderful with the kids. They have lots of cute special days. My daughter has learned so much from her weekly class.
I am the mother of two boys. My husband and I decided we wanted to enroll our boys in music lessons last year. Danielle was extremely accommodating and agreed to teach one of our boys guitar even though that is not something she is advertising and we are extremely appreciative. Being that both our boys are involved in sports she is beyond flexible and always works with our crazy hectic schedules. She is professional, patient (which she needs with one of my boys lol), and an absolute joy to be around. I feel very blessed that my boys are able to learn from such a pristine teacher and I hold her at a very high regard and would recommend her to anyone.
Simply stated this program is amazing! I am so impressed with the instructors and their ability to quickly access and determine the students needs and skill level and challeng them in creative and positive ways to push forward with their instrumental and voice abilities.
4. Dawson Sound

We have been nothing but happy with the service at Dawson Sound. We have used them for rehearsal space and for recording purposes and they have been very flexible and very fun to work with. Highly recommended!
I can’t say enough good things about Dawson Sound. Tyler & Taylor are great and always willing to go above and beyond to ensure we have the best rehearsals. The atmosphere is inspiring & produces fantastic sound quality for use with their great recording skills.
These guys are awesome. They recently updated their studio and it’s sick! Love what they have going on, definitely the spot to hangout for band rehearsals and even if your an up and coming artist. Plus they got a nice audio booth if you’ve got the good voice of the group hahaha
5. Six Strings & Superheroes
Address: 5645 Main St, New Port Richey, FL 34652 , Jasmine Estates , Florida , United States
My daughter has taken piano/voice lessons from Marina for years. My son has taken guitar lessons from Coenraad and participated in the summer camps. Coenraad, Eric, and Marina are very talented musicians, passionate about music, wonderful teachers, and truly care about their students.
We discovered Mullins Music by walking in to ask about guitar lessons for our 6 year old. Mr. Eric guided us to piano, as a foundation until his hands grow big enough to handle a guitar, and the experience has been terrific. The teacher creatively and thoughtfully has chosen songs that directly interest my son, so he is truly developing a love for music and I can’t be more grateful. We recently enrolled my 4-year-old in drum lessons because our first experience was so positive, and I can’t say enough about the positive and encouraging environment. Oh – and their PATIENCE! Mullins Music is the perfect balance of classical music education and rock stars – more than I could wish for in a local operation to help instill a love of music in my (very) young children. Thank you!
I was told by a friend that Rock Week at Mullins Music was an awesome experience for his daughter. My son attended this year and after the first day he got in the car and said, “that was awesome!” It was a great way to further the love for music these kids have. They spent a week at Rock Camp learning how to play with other musicians in a band, which was invaluable. That week culminated in the newly formed bands putting on a concert which was just plain cool with watch. Regardless, Rock Week and Mullins Music (with their fantastic teachers) will be a part of our lives for years to come.
10. Best Buy
Address: 9409 US-19 Ste 601, Port Richey, FL 34668 , Jasmine Estates , Florida , United States
This Bestbuy is literally the only reason I even go to this mall anymore. If the mall here does end up going under then I’ll be pretty bummed to see what ends up happening to this Bestbuy. There’s always great deals on a lot of stuff too and especially around Black Friday. I’ve been shopping at this one since 2011 when I moved to Pasco County from Pinellas County. The cashiers are always pretty friendly too from what I remember.
Has great selection.
Great experience
The staff was very helpful with picking out my new TV. I love it, just wish they would match Amazons prices.
Pricey
Didn’t have what I needed
Return process has taken me over a week and 3 calls to corperate on a laptop. Do not intend to buy anything online through them again.
Just got my new chest freezer delivered. The two guys had a vocabulary of one word. ” NO”. They dropped it off boxed outside my exterior laundry room. As they started to walk away I asked if they were going to set it. “NO” Are we going to open it and check for damage “NO” Are you going to wait so I can check “NO” well my wife and I got it uncreated and set. We are just starting a total kitchen renovation and when my wife asks me if the four new appliances are going to be from Best Buy my answer will be the same as theirs”NO”
My kids have been playing for some time now, it wasn’t till going to Adventure in music for lessons that I actually saw tremendous growth in their understanding and skill in music. Teachers are amazing. My kids have different style of learning and were able to work with different teachers to find the one that fits their need.Every person I have encountered at Adventure in Music has always put my kids needs first and always works with me on scheduling. I have friends who also come here that strongly agree with me. The price is also very reasonable for what your child receives. I definitely recommend Adventure in music to anyone wanting to learn how to play an instrument.
My daughter has been taking violin lessons from Ms. Emiko for almost a year now, and we just love her. Her passion and excitement for teaching shows. I enjoy watching and hearing my daughter progress with each lesson. I’m so glad we found Adventures in Music and Ms. Emiko.
We are extremely lucky to have found Adventures in Music. My daughter, Francesca, takes voice lessons from Mr. Lonnie & piano from Ms. Emicho. She is excited to go to every lesson. Mr. Lonnie makes singing fun & exciting for her and she looks to Ms. Emicho as a role model. Wonderful people, inviting atmosphere. It is a home away from home for us. Thank you Adventures in Music ! I highly recommend !!

We went to Patrick’s Book & Records Store today to sell some vinyls and books… Very pleasant to speak with and do business with. Thank you!
Awesome place
Fantastic little record shop off 19. I have read some of the other negative reviews but I can only go with my experience. My wife and I randomly stopped in to look around (found a good old Dylan and some Dead) and were immediately greated by (later to find out) Patrick. He was exceptionally knowledgeable and friendly and chatted us up for a few minutes. The selection here is pretty incredible and there are records EVERYWHERE. DVDs and other older media can be found as well. I highly recommend stopping in and peeking around if not only for the sure-to-come nostalgia. We will be back!
Great selection. Prices seem to run higher than other record shops and online but maybe for haggling purposes. Wish him success but kind of out of the way of anything
Fair
There’s not many vinyl resale stores around in the area here, so I went to check it out and didn’t check the reviews first–I wish I had.
First things first, the place has a stench, think wet basement. Whatever, some people don’t like to clean. The old man asked if I needed help looking for something, but was just browsing for some old stones material, which was nice.
But, a few other people came into the store after me and he asked the same question and the lady obliged, so I wasn’t paying any more attention until I hear their voices get louder and his hand motions. I doubt this seemingly sweet older gal offended him in a way to behave how he was. He did make some smart remarks so that could have done it.
Now that I decided to look at reviews from other customers and was not surprised. This man has some screws loose and an attitude problem. Just reading the response to poor reviews by unsatisfied customers paints the rest of the picture.
I won’t go back anyway, but just beware future customers, this guy is unstable. Bring hand sanitizer as well.
Awful service what kind of business won’t even answer the phone for a customer to at least ask a simple question this place won’t receive my business sense it can’t even answer there phone
Kicked out for no reason at all. I don’t recommend coming here, obviously it’s a reoccurring issue with him from what I see.
16. Cotee River Productions
Address: 7922 Grand Blvd, Port Richey, FL 34668 , Jasmine Estates , Florida , United States
Great place to record and rehearse. Owner is well educated in the music and entertainment industry. They respond quickly and can adjust their schedule and time to accommodate any requests you might have in recording studio. Pro equipment for a pro sound. These guys know what they’re doing. There is no place better in the area. I stop here anytime I get a chance to record or just say hello.
Very professional with top of the line gear.
17. Music Matters
Address: 4112 Little Rd, New Port Richey, FL 34655 , Jasmine Estates , Florida , United States
I had a guitar emergency, they took in my loved one quickly, and with great bedside manner. They repaired her on the spot, and got us out playing that night. Thanks guys.
Awesome shop. Owners and teachers are really nice. , They take care of me and they have awesome prices!
Great deals!!!!
Great Instructors. No pressure, ample space and knowledgeable staff! Great place for lessons!
Edit: Owner offers whole string change for free. 1 star to 3 stars.
They charged me 5 DOLLARS for one guitar string change. My E string broke and they previously replaced it for free so I bought a pick holder for my guitar. So I came back, and thought I might buy some picks or something if they did it for free or for cheap again, but then the guy at the counter says it would cost 5 whole dollars, 2 for the string, 3 for tuning and setup. The tuning and setup took 30 seconds.
Go somewhere else for string changes or learn it yourself. That’s what I’ll be doing.
More of a place for music lessons than a music shop, but does include a variety of guitar equipment although a bit pricey. The cashier wasn’t too personable, however a friendly and knowledgeable gentleman (could have been an instructor or owner) helped me choose the best pick for my guitar.
If you want to be argued with and insulted when you are more informed than the ‘tech’ go here. Tried to sell me a used accessory out of the ‘techs’ bag for triple the price because the store didn’t have them. Then I showed him the price for a new identical piece and he got flustered and agitated
Visited the store for the first time today. I was interested in buying a Boss pedal, which they seemed to have a good selection of. I was in the store for over ten minutes with just one other customer and no one even said hello. The person behing the counter had even made eye contact with me more than once before going about his business each time. At one point, I had even stood directly in front of him, but he continued to ignore me. I don’t forsee this store being open long with such terrible customer service.
First of all I’ve shopped here a bunch of times and have received similar customer service from the same person every time. I went in the store to ask if they had any parts for my pickups all I needed was a few screws and a 3 selector switch and brought my bridge to the counter and didn’t even get a chance to ask about it, and I was told we don’t carry any parts at all for any of what I was asking. Which is annoying because the part in question is an extremely common part and used for a variety of guitars. Apparently they don’t carry any parts so if you looking for any kind of parts for any of your guitars I’d stay away and just do yourself a favor and go to Sam Ash in Clearwater. I know Danny the general manager there and they will bend over backwards to make sure you leave as satisfied as you possibly can be with what they have there. However if your looking for any mid grade guitars and a mild selection of boss pedals or maybe a mismatched stack then this is your place.
18. FOXBLOOM RECORDINGS
Address: 5736 Missouri Ave, New Port Richey, FL 34652 , Jasmine Estates , Florida , United States
Definitely the best producing I’ve experienced! Extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and has the intentions of making anything you’re working on sound the best it possibly can.
David’s laid-back style allows for the tension of recording to be eased and the band has fun as we work through the entire process. His attention to every detail is amazing, and he makes sure to perfect each piece before moving on. His suggestions help bring a solid shape to ideas that aren’t quite thorough, and open everyone to new ideas. David works quickly and efficiently, maximizing available time. We’ve worked with him on a very successful single and are looking forward to doing so again soon!
David Alex at Foxbloom Recordings is not only a truly skilled engineer behind the mixing board, but is also a highly skilled and talented musician. His technical prowess is amazing, but his production abilities are second to none!
As a member of the Tampa Bay rock band, Murder The Crow, I am proud that we selected Foxbloom Recordings to record and produce our first full length album there. I always know when I walk into Foxbloom, I will leave a better musician. David is THAT good! The band and myself couldn’t be happier with the final result.
His pricing is fair and competitive and an excellent value for any working musicians in the area. I would highly recommend this studio to our friends and colleagues.
