ROCK CAMP 2010

For Guitar, Bass, Drums, Vocals & Keyboards

"Start a band and play great songs!"

Rock Hero Summer Camp is an awesome opportunity for young performers to jam and perform together while being coached by professional musicians.

"Become a better musician!"

This confidence-building learning experience advances instrumental skills & musicianship, develops showmanship & stage presence and teaches all the necessary skills needed to perform together as a band.

In these one-week day camp programs, students will work on the skills necessary to learn rock songs and perform them live in a real band. This is a hands-on camp, so the maximum emphasis will be on playing their instruments and learning material for a live performance.

Our camps have a limited amount of participants so that there is plenty of opportunity for one-on-one interaction with the instructors. There will be a performance for parents, instructors and other students at the end of each camp session.  RESERVE NOW

August Sessions:

You've enjoyed the video games, now learn to play the real thing.  Learn to play your favorite Guitar Hero songs and perform them with your bandmates! Ages 8-12 and Teens.

Some prior playing experience necessary.

On the first day, some time will be spent having students performing separately and together while interacting with the instructors. Bands will be formed according to each student’s age, instrument and ability. Favorite music and bands will be discussed and together with the instructors the bands will pick the songs that will be learned that week.

The remainder of the first day’s session will be spent beginning to learn the songs to be performed at the end of the week. Each day the students will work separately with an instructor on their particular instrument and then come together as a band to rehearse the songs. Students will be given material to take home and be expected to practice each night.

Performance, stage presence, memorization techniques, timing, dynamics, as well as listening and communication skills will be incorporated into each days work. While learning how to interact with other musicians, students will gain first-hand experience in what it’s like to play in a real rock & roll band.

Bands will perform their songs in a mini-concert for each other, the teachers and the parents at the end of the week. The performance will be videotaped and everyone will receive a DVD of their performance.
