WORKSHOP DESCRIPTION

Starting in the early 90s, Pop Punk became a popular genre that dominated the radio. It has produced bands like Green Day, Paramore, Blink 182, No Doubt, Fall Out Boy, My Chemical Romance, and many more who will be featured in this workshop. Students will spend Monday through Friday learning and practicing songs, all culminating in a live performance at the end of the week. Great for students 8-18 years of age who have had some previous instruction.

What to expect

Students attending Pop Punk workshop can expect to spend the majority of their time this week rehearsing songs from the best bands of Pop Punk. However, they will also take some time to get to know their band mates, play games, and it all culminates in a performance! 

At School of Rock, we are committed to creating a safe and welcoming environment for all students. To help us maintain this space, we ask parents to avoid packing any nut products in lunches or snacks. We also prohibit any toy or real weapons from being brought to the school.
