Message from the owners

We are Noel and Jiyoung Johnston

Hi, we're a musician couple whose mission is to share our love and passion for music with the families in our community.

Music is the heartbeat of our family life, with our sons embracing piano, guitar, saxophone, and drums, thriving in competitions and bands. We cherish these melodic moments together and look forward to nurturing your family's musical voyage. Welcome to the Lone Star Family!

As founders with a deep-rooted legacy in both musical excellence and education, we—Jiyoung, a graduate of Seoul National University and the University of North Texas, and Noel, a seasoned artist from the University of Southern California and UNT—have dedicated ourselves to creating a supportive atmosphere for musicians at every stage of their journey.

Our dedication is echoed in the accomplishments of our students and in our ongoing involvement with the broader music community.
