Our Story

Holly and Rich met performing in the musical 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee together, and bonded over a love for music, theater, garlic bread and laughter. They soon became partners in life, theater and business.

Rich and Holly teamed up to direct the WATCH award winning production of The Hunchback of Notre Dame with The Arlington Players.  Music is such an important part of what brought them together, and they are extraordinarily excited to share their passion for music with the next generation.

Before owning Blue Feather Music, Holly was a teacher with the Studio and now manages the business on a daily basis. You may see less of Rich but rest assured that he is working behind the scenes to deliver the best music education experience to the Blue Feather Community.

We strongly believe that a music education is not simply for those wishing to pursue a career in performing.  Music education should be a fun, safe and positive experience to learn music, explore creativity and reach your highest potential.

Holly and Rich were married December 2021

TL;DR: We are in love. And we both love music. Holly knows kids, and Rich knows excel spreadsheets
