Island City Acoustics
We started playing just a few years ago and it’s not easy to keep going, especially when you’re older. It was hard for us – music shops were intimidating, lessons were hard to find, online resources plentiful but overwhelming.
We quit a bunch of times, until we started playing with others – that opened up a whole new world for us! One that we want to keep growing and sharing, especially with anyone new to playing or new to playing with others in a group. We hope to not only get you started, but keep you going.
And we want a neighborhood shop where everyone feels welcome, regardless of music knowledge or experience. Our hope is to spark a new interest, rekindle a past hobby, or otherwise inspire and motivate you to play more. Ask about lessons and jams and local events.
Our goals is for this shop to be a music hub for the Northwoods, a place where musicians feel supported, where people of all skill levels find inspiration and community, and where folks can learn more about the local music scene.

Lessons, Workshops & Jams
Our expert instructors provide private music lessons personalized to your goals and preferred learning style. From electric guitar to banjo, rock to folk, our vetted instructors customize your experience to your interests.
Open jam sessions are held weekly, and are open to all skill levels. We host an open acoustic Jam every Wednesday at the shop from 5-7pm.
Workshops are something between Jams and Lessons, where a group of learn together from 1 or more musicians more knowledgeable and experienced than us.
