Inspiring the world to rock, on stage and in life!
With more than a decade of successful experience teaching music, School of Rock is the national leader in music education. Students learn from professional musicians in an interactive environment combining weekly private lessons and structured group rehearsals with the ultimate goal of performing live in front of real crowds. Areas of instruction include guitar, drums, keyboards, bass guitar and vocals and we accept students of all abilities – from kids just starting out to advanced players. Plus, Lubbock is the first School of Rock location that has been approved to offer a Christian Rock program for those interested! No matter what your rock music preference, you will love the Lubbock SoR! For additional information call 1-806-795-0506 or e-mail [email protected]
The School of Rock is a performance-based program, which is comprised of three areas for our students:
1.) Private one-on-one lessons with the best local professional rock musicians. In these lessons, theory is stressed and we teach our students to play their instruments correctly, starting with the fundamentals all the way through the most advanced techniques!
2.) Weekly band rehearsals with other students! In addition to practicing the techniques learned in lessons, our students are given songs to learn and to come to the school to play with their peers in a band setting. Our goal is to challenge, but not overwhelm our students. This is also a great opportunity for students to learn awesome communication skills and leadership! We really shouldn't have to say that one of the best things about this part of the program is it ROCKS...tons of fun making music with your rock friends!
3.) Finally, we get our students up on stage playing LIVE for real rock audiences at real rock venues. The regularly scheduled concerts put a stake in the ground and give the students a tangible goal to work toward! There is nothing like the feeling of performing as a band for your friends, family and fans!
So to sum up these 3 parts, the private lessons cover a great deal of ground in terms of musical theory and techniques, the rehearsals serve as preparation, and the proof is in the pudding with the live performances. A major component of the School Of Rock is that there is no substitute for actually doing something. Preparing for and playing ambitious live shows is the cornerstone of our teaching method. Every season, each student in the school participates in shows at major live music venues in the area.
The programs at School of Rock are much more comprehensive than typical music lessons, and we have experienced countless kids sticking with music far longer than conventional lessons, learning much faster, and becoming much more than simply proficient in their instruments. Our students learn to excel musically and in other areas of life! Students average 12-18 hours of instruction per month, and also are invited and encouraged to come to the school to practice, meet with peers, and become part of our amazing rock community!
School of Rock...inspiring students to rock on stage, and in life!
