Today I’m talking with Josh Gillis, founder of Catfish Alley Studio in Columbus, Mississippi. Josh is one of the kindest, most curious, and most future-leaning educators in the Fons community. He’s building a modern, community-centered music studio that blends interest-based teaching, student experiences, founder-led marketing, and emerging technologies.
We explore Josh’s journey from teaching in his sunroom to running a multi-teacher music school downtown, his daily framework of offer, value, and asset, why consistency beats perfection, and how he creates student experiences that feel more like concerts than recitals.
We also dive into future tech, from VR practice tools to blockchain use cases… what it means to build a studio that’s ready for the next decade of music education.
