Session Course Information
Overview:
RBA Session Courses are built for the beginning musician in mind. We take students of approximately the same ability level and age then put them together in a band. At the end of the session students play a show at the Hard Rock Cafe.
Prerequisites:
Students joining Rock Band Academy must have some playing experience on their instruments. Guitarists and bassists should know basic chords, vocalists must be able to match pitch, and all musicians should be able to keep time.
New participants will need to attend a placement evaluation with an instructor before they can be placed in a band. Please call the store nearest you and set up an appointment for an evaluation time prior to the registration deadline.
Cost:
Tuition for Rock Band Academy is $200.00 for five two-hour lessons plus a show at the Hard Rock Cafe. Tuition is due at the time of registration and can be paid for by cash, money order, personal check, or Backstage Guitars-accepted credit cards. Certain circumstances may arise where not every student can be placed in a band. In this situation your money will be refunded. However, if you have committed to the band and time slot, the tuition is non-refundable after the first day of the session has started.
Scheduling:
Two RBA Sessions are scheduled throughout the year. One is offered in the Spring (March) and one in the Fall (September). Each Session is dependent upon student participation
