PSSM Student Tyna Q receives Horizon Award from the Georgia Music Hall of Fame

The Peggy Still School of Music has been a well-known music school in the Greater Atlanta area for over 20 years. It is responsible for training some of the finest musicians in the southeast and all over the nation. Today, we are honoring one of our latest prodigies, Tyna Q.

Tyna Q is a remarkable Spanglish Teen Pop Singer/Songwriter from Alpharetta, Georgia. At just sixteen years old, Tyna has created a certified buzz in the music industry with thousands of fans throughout the country, as well as within the Hispanic Arena. Tyna Q's unique talent blends a combination of Rock, Pop, R&B, Soul, and various dance styles. Growing up in a multi-cultural family has proved to be instrumental in allowing her to musically express her roots in Hispanic and American cultures.

The Horizon Award is given annually to one “Up and Coming” performing artist or songwriter, either individual or group with significant ties to the State of Georgia and who is expected to make a significant future contribution to the world of music.
