Y2K

An era of pop punk, cheesy pop rock, and a whole lot of great music that everyone could sing along to. We are super excited to work with you all on songs from bands and artists like Bowling for Soup, Daft Punk, Taylor Swift, Katy Perry. This is a show that doesn't require too much. Our performance levels will be fun to work with for this show, and even reworking some pop tunes to have a rock feel. This is a show that encourages everyone to have fun on stage. If our songs can be completed on time, then we will start our performance workshops early, so we can all have a fun time delivering our best performances.

Drumageddon

Rhythm has always been one of the most important part of music. Whether it be as simple as the beat for We Will Rock You or as complex as an Emerson, Lake & Palmer drum solo, it is difficult to deny the impact that drums have for any kind of genre of music. What happens when you take that fact and push it to the maximum? This is a show that will have a focus on iconic drum parts. Whether it be memorable drum fills like Phil Collin's In The Air Tonight, drum solos like in Rush's Tom Sawyer, drum intros like Van Halen's Hot For Teacher, drum set and percussion colliding like Edgar Winter's Frankenstein, there is no shortage of love for drums in this show. All of these songs and more will be played by us this season. Join us every Tuesday 5:30-7:30 September-January.

Parliament-Funkadelic vs. Frank Zappa

School of Rock Farmingdale is proud to host the witty, comical, and absurd magic from Frank Zappa and George Clinton. With Parliament-Funkadelic changing the way funk and rock unified (with the help of Bernie Worrell and Bootsy Collins), and Zappa composing some of the most intricate yet genius music (with the help of Steve Vai, Tina Turner, and George Duke), this versus battle is an ultimate clash of the titans. This is an incredibly inclusive show that features innovative techniques for its time (expressive synth bass + timed spoken word as examples). Join us for band every Monday 5:30-7:30 September through January.
