rockLab session II registration now open

brmusicstudios — Fri, 09 Mar 2012 14:22:51 +0000

For the young musician with a lot going on outside the studio. Levels beginner to intermediate. Don’t have time for extra rehearsals and concerts with Young Band, but still want to get the “I’m in a band” experience and the sensation of jamming on stage WITH A BAND?!?! Rock Lab is easy. Students just continue with their private lesson schedule with no extra time commitments. In their 6 lessons during the session, each student learns 1-2 rock songs as other students are learning the same songs in their individual lessons. We take a long day Saturday to rehearsal the material, then we ROCK OUT on Sunday at a local performance space or venue. Rock Star Status: mission accomplished.

Registration open now until Friday, March 23rd.

rock of ages youth music festival

brmusicstudios — Thu, 08 Mar 2012 14:41:39 +0000

Come one, come all to the Rock of Ages Youth Music Festival! ROA is Baton Rouge’s only rock, roots, and blues festival where the music entertainment is provided SOLELY by musicians 18 and under. There is a heck of a lot of talented young musicians in the Greater Baton Rouge Area, but there is little opportunity for them to perform to the public. The result is that we have an overwhelming number of bands all competing for the same one or two performance options, as well as a bunch of young bands who just don’t know where or how to get a gig. This fest is a stepping stone in our mission to provide more opportunity for those young musicians. There will be snacks, face painting, information booths on summer camp opportunities, and most importantly some GREAT JAMS by local talent. Click here to check out the bands, booths, and sponsors for this event! RAIN OR SHINE, WE’LL BE THERE. IF IT STORMS, THE PARTY MOVES INSIDE!

WHAT: ROCK OF AGES Youth Music Festival
WHEN: Saturday, March 10th from 1pm-6pm
WHERE: The Shaw Center Plaza (100 Lafayette Street)
WHO: Amazing young musicians from all over BR!

group classes starting in february!

brmusicstudios — Mon, 16 Jan 2012 22:00:07 +0000

Starting in February 2012, group classes in guitar, percussion, or voice are back, but this time around, group classes are not only for beginners. In addition to large group beginner classes, we have geared some small group lessons toward intermediate and advanced students who want to take their lesson experience to the next level. Click the pic to see why our experiences with RockLab and Young Band have proven our theory that grouping students is the only way to go!
