Why join a band?

So you’ve been practicing your instrument, learning songs, scales, how to read. What now? Most practicing musicians come to a point where they actually want to do something worthwhile with their skills.

Accountability

 Our year round band development program “Rock Band Camp” takes you to a whole new level of fun and musicianship. In a band, each player has a unique role and is accountable to his fellow bandmates to show up and be prepared.This puts positive peer pressure on the student to practice. It is a very human thing to want to perform well in a group.

Camaraderie

Through the experience of rehearsing, performing, and socializing with one another, all the students in the band form a sense of camaraderie. This is a special bond that only occurs when people join together to accomplish something special. Let’s face it, being in a band is cool!

Confidence

Imagine how good it would feel to get together with other musicians to preparesome cool songs and then get on stage and nail it! Getting on the stage and performing takes confidence, poise and preparation and those are really the life skills we are teaching our students. The music is secondary in a way, and we use music as a tool to help prepare our students for life through music!
