Rock School- Band 101

Rock School Application Form: www.rock-school.org/Application

Cost: School year classes are $150/month for unlimited classes up to 5 days per week October through June. New students may begin at anytime.

In Band 101, students will learn the basics of the music industry at both a local and national level. Each class begins with a class discussion. In these discussions, students learn about various topics such as:

· Making your first record
· Booking your first show
· How to rehearse effectively
· How to conduct a soundcheck
· Business people and what they do
· How to listen critically
· How to conduct yourself professionally

After each class discussion, the class breaks into bands. The bands, each overseen by their own musical mentor, will work collaboratively to write, create, and perform original music. The overall goal is to bring the students to a level in which they can perform at Rock School showcases and record in our studio.

What To Bring:
**Students will need to bring their guitars, basses, small amps, cords, picks, and drum sticks. Although some gear is available for lending, we encourage students to bring their own equipment. Large amps and drum sets provided by Rock School.
