*Please note that our lessons and rehearsal space are available by appointment only.  While walk-in business is greatly appreciated, we cannot guarantee that someone will be here if there are no lessons schedued or rehearsal space booked at that time.

We enforce a 24 hour cancellation policy for lessons and room rentals.  Any lesson or room can be canceled or rescheduled provided it is not within the 24 hour hour period of its scheduled appointment.  This is to protect the livelihood of our teachers and staff and to allow them to properly schedule their week. 

The time purchased for rehearsal space includes breakdown and set up.  If any band or band member arrives early or stays past their scheduled time, they will be charged in 15 minute increments according the hourly rate of the studio they rented. 

Parallel Sound Studio is not responsible for any items left after a lesson or rehearsal, but we do our best to put anything we find in our control room.
