This is what it’s all about. YOU are the band. You create the set list. You dive deep into the music-making experience. YOU rock the show. Join our incredibly talented team of instructors as they guide you and your friends through all the parts of being in a band. Performances throughout the year with live audiences – the real deal! 

Not to be missed for all the rock stars out there.

Once you are registered, bands will be created based on instrument and playing level balance.

A good band needs great music. In Pop Academy Theory/Composition, you’ll learn all the tools necessary to create music for the band to play. How to write for various instruments, how to bring the pieces together, and how to teach it to the band. 

This class will be all about the process and learning!

There’s music, and there’s lyrics. Together, they are magical. 

Songwriting is a mix of tapping into your creative side as well as learning the business side of songwriting. Students participating in this group can expect to work on songs, the craft and playing, and also learn about recording studios, releasing music, playing live and more. No background necessary, but an openness to share, be creative and work hard.
