I decided to take up guitar as a little New Year’s resolution for myself in 2025. After researching various music schools in the Houston area, I felt drawn to Bojangles as a local business that seemed to really care about their students and their musical growth, while also charging a fair price for lessons. I’ve been taking guitar lessons with Shawn now for about a month and I could not be happier. I can feel myself get better with each passing week and I always feel taken care of at my lessons. They were very flexible with scheduling and cancellations if needed. Bojangles is a great school that truly cares about their students! Highly, highly recommend. Read More

Bojangles Music School in the Heights is fantastic. I don’t even know where to begin. Shawn (who grew up in the Heights) and Liz (the owners) are just awesome, kind, friendly, and engaging. The music studio is super cool. Each room is designed beautifully, their waiting room is comfortable and fun! They have a pool table, an air hockey table, and a TV in case we show up a bit early. But, what stands out the most are the instructors. My son takes guitar lessons with Shawn, and he has learned so much. My daughter takes piano lessons (on a baby grand piano!) with Blake. I could gush over Blake forever. He is an amazing musician himself, sings and plays several instruments. He makes the lessons fun and engaging while also very informative. My daughter has become a budding musician because of him. He also sends a short video note after each lesson so that my daughter knows exactly what to practice. I grew up taking music lessons, and the methodology and technical skills Bojangles teaches is Read More

Bojangles is wonderful. Shawn is a great teacher - funny, patient, and passionate about the craft - everything this 61-year-old newbie could ask. The Heights location is all Heights coolness and the Rockin' Robin location is the best sort of rough around the edges. Both are authentic Houston. Great place, great people. Read More
