Brandon Sylvia
Instructor

He currently plays in a rock/blues band and work on the side doing a jazz duo. Outside of this, he takes on many different musical projects whenever the opportunity arises.
In June , 2018, Brandon went to Ghana in Africa to experience their traditional music and culture. Every morning, he would drum and dance to songs that originated in different regions of West Africa. This helped him realize the “language” behind music , seeing how they teach it , perform it, and speak it.
All of these experiences keep Brandon’s mind open to various genres of music and seeing it all as one language.
He listens to a variety of music, but some artists that have captivated him include Eric Clapton, The Allman Brothers, Wes Montgomery, Grant Green, George Benson, Marcus King, John Mayer, Dave Matthews Band, Jimi Hendrix, The New Mastersounds, Mandolin Orange, and Grateful Dead. There are many more – too many to list! – but these are some that have planted seeds in his musical journey.
From teachers and people he’s met, he will forever be learning and growing, and he wants to show his students how to do the same.

Tom Davis
Instructor

For the last 10 years he’s been playing in a local band ‘Funktapuss’, and has been fortunate enough to be able to tour around the country, and put out a record with them, as well as his own solo work, and guest spot on other artists’ albums.
His love for music and guitar come from watching concerts on PBS with his Dad as a kid and becoming obsessed with the sounds of what the electric guitar offered. He quickly became obsessed with music of the Beatles, the Moody Blues, Albert King, BB King, Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix, and Led Zeppelin – to name a few.
For him, being able to play guitar helped tap into a side of expression that was more powerful than could be explained; the fact that it’s something that physically can never be held, but is so important and impactful on the human psyche is an intoxicating obsession to chase.
He hopes to bring his infectious passion for music and guitar to others.

Amy Wyman,
BC-MT, M.A., CCLS
“Tones in Motion”
Early Childhood Education Classes
As a “Music Together” certified instructor with a degree in expressive art therapies, she creates programming that is fun and accessible for ALL ages and ALL abilities.
Specifically about her program, Amy says:
”When children sing or listen to music, when they move or clap or dance to it, they immerse themselves in the experience. When children sing, they listen closely to learn new lyrics and rhymes; they internalize phrasing, predict refrains, and mentally organize rhythmic patterns. When children sing with their classmates, the sound they create is richer and their experience more broad and inclusive. When children sing, they move, for there is very little music in early childhood without expressive movement. Come move and groove with us! All abilities always welcome!
Her bio & creds:
- Childhood on the shores of Cape Cod, and young adult in the city of Boston
- MA in Expressive Art Therapies with a specialization in Music Therapy from Lesley University and a dual BA in Early Childhood Education and Child Life from Wheelock College – wow!
- Over 15 years of professional experience in the early childhood education
- Experience in special education, public and private schools, inner city, under-served populations, and hospital settings
- Her international work includes experience in Guatemala, Benin, Ghana, Costa Rica, Mexico and Singapore
- In 2015, she founded “Tones in Motion,” an intergenerational music therapy program.
- Amy founded and currently manages “Good Grief Cape Cod,” which offers expressive art therapy support programming for children and families coping with death and tragedy.
Lydia Broderick
Art Instructor
Lydia is a self-taught, Cape Cod-based, mixed media painter.
Born into a family of artists, Lydia was encouraged to channel her creativity through various art forms, including theater, music, and visual art.
From an early age, Lydia showed an aptitude for drawing using whatever tool she could get her hands on. By her teenage years, charcoal became her tool of choice.
Her love of drawing portraits was born from a desire to capture an emotion by focusing in on the eyes; a signature trait she would later bring to the canvas. For many years, Lydia refused to paint, feeling there were too many painters in the family. Eventually, she gave in and fell in love with it.
Lydia paints a mixture of portraits with some realism and abstraction, using color and texture to convey the complex emotions of the human condition. A few of her works are pictured here.
Some artists who have inspired and influenced her are Salvador Dali, Thomas Hart Benton, Misti Pavlov, John and Elli Milan, and Henry Ascensio.

What our Community Says
“Chase was beaming when we attended the open house for Steeple Street Music Academy on Saturday. We thought we would just pop in as we were already in Mashpee Commons. We soon found that we were among friends – music and art does that. Chase was in his glory when he picked up his artwork that he created with his peers that will hang at Cape Space in Hyannis…We all can rise to the level of our ability when supported and encouraged.”
Marie Younger Blackburn, Mom of chase, student at SSMA
“Thank you Katherine and Demetrius and everyone at Steeple Street Music Academy for the most AMAZING music and art jamboree! The children and adults we support here at (KDC) Kennedy-Donovan Center were thrilled with the entire program.
Everyone loved the drumming! The teacher, Michael, was engaging, patient, entertaining and a great instructor!
The art teacher, Sarah, did a fun and phenomenal job helping everyone to participate in the collaborative painting.
The greatest reward was seeing the joy on everyone’s face and hearing all of the clapping and laughing! We will be back!”
