What Students Will Do
The program was created to provide a creative and fun learning environment
for teens to learn how to play their favorite genre of music in a group
setting. Students will learn the beginning stages of forming a band,
naming their band and developing their band’s logo and identity. They will
also select and learn cover songs and write original songs. They will then reap the rewards of their band's efforts by playing in a concert.
The program will register students by age and playing level as well as
their preference in genre type. Enrollment will require a commitment of
finishing the 6 week long term.
What Happens in Rehearsals
After the students learn all the facets of being in a band. They will learn
practical tools that will be covered at each rehearsal such as the
intricacies of stage presence, basic music theory, understanding their
instrument, vocals and harmonies. The rehearsals are led by teaching
professionals who are experienced and currently working in local bands.
About the Concert
The
finale of each term is a concert in the JamStage Thearte. The concert will be promoted just like
any other show for a band. A videographer will be
onsite to chronicle the entire event. Students who made it through the
sometimes strenuous rehearsing process will experience the rush and
reward of performing onstage in front of a live audience!
What the Requirements Are for Registering
Musicians from beginner and up are encouraged to register. Drummers who can keep a beat on
drums, keyboardists who can play simple songs, and guitarists who can
play barre chords on guitar will easily fit into our program. The
program is open to teens from
ages 14 to 18. Opportunities are available for adult bands too!(contact us!)
