CAMP DESCRIPTION
The battle for supremacy between these two radically different but fun groups! Two opposite genres of music are going to be a blast with the music of Metallica and the sweet sounds of Taylor Swift. Students will be placed in one band or the other, but there may be some crossover for FUN. Our summer camps are one week sessions and are geared toward kids ages 8-17 & ALL skill levels. Campers will be placed in groups, and then throughout the week the students will work on learning songs and write together an original song concentrating on Taylor Swift’s and Metallica's fundamentally simple yet effective songwriting techniques. There will also be breakout sessions for their instruments and masterclasses on songwriting, improvisation, and how to perform and be in a band. On Friday, campers will put on a show for family, friends and fans and perform the songs their band has been working on all week. The show will take place in the evening at a local rock venue, giving your child a true rock star experience!
SPACE IS LIMITED!
