Fourteen-year-old pianist Tyler Miller cut his teeth on Liszt, Chopin, and Bach. A fan of Hans Zimmer, he enjoys recording music for film. Recently one of his compositions was featured in a commercial in the Los Angeles airport. His introspective, brooding pieces reflect his love for the Romantic period of classical music. Look for tracks by Tyler:

Southlake has a well-known history of growing great guitar players, and fifteen-year-old Dylan James Bishop is no exception. Dylan writes bluesy guitar songs reminiscent of Stevie Ray Vaughan that he records with a live band. You can hear Dylan performing at local venues such as The Burger Shack. Check out his selections:
