MEET THE TEACHERS-
Georgia Rae has had a love for the violin since the age 5. A lot of her enthusiasm as a child came from the joy it brought to her when she would play daily with her mom. The two of them would work together for the next 13 years to prepare for fiddle contests throughout the United States. She has won 7 state championships, and one national twin fiddle championship. At age 12 started performing with her family band to fund music lessons when her dad got laid off from his construction job. With performing came the opportunity to teach private lessons, helping her realize that teaching and performing were her passion. In High school, Georgia Rae studied online so that she could have more time to practice and find gigs. She unknowingly started paving a path towards independence and entrepreneurship, going all in and learning along the way. Georgia Rae is now a full time musician and teacher providing private lessons, workshops, and performing with many musical projects.
Mike Morgan has been playing music since the age of 15 and has been performing professionally for the last 15 years. His love for playing music started on the guitar and over time has expanded into a love for all things sound. While guitar and bass are the primary instruments for live performances, he is also very interested and passionate about live sound, recording, mixing and mastering studio music and teaching music. For him, there is nothing more exciting than the thrill of a live show or working with new people on different events to create long lasting memories for everyone involved. He is forever grateful to be able to share his love for performing with willing audiences across the country.
Trevor Mooney is originally from Germantown, Maryland and has a passion for electric bass! During his teenage years, Trevor spent his time performing regularly, writing music, and preparing to attend Berklee College of Music. In 2013, Trevor enrolled at Berklee where he met two friends he would later form a band with. After graduating in 2017, he relocated to the Chicago area to pursue music with that band. Trevor's favorite bands include the Grateful Dead, Yes, Bob Marley, and anything released by Motown. Recently, Trevor has played in numerous rock, folk, and bluegrass bands, performing around 100 shows a year. In addition to performing, Trevor teaches music, at all levels, to students and bands. His teaching focuses on learning songs, improvisation, and music theory for the practical musician.
