Music Classes

Rock Band Class

Has your child been playing an instrument and is ready to take the next step and start rocking out with a band? Are you tired of the limited options in school music programs? You know, boring instruments, no cool music and with limited performance opportunities. If your child is ready to ROCK then you should participate in our Rock Band. Apply the skills you’ve learned in your private lessons while rehearsing weekly with your fellow students, all under the guidance our one of our experienced instructors.

If you are not already a student at Dallas Academy of Music and Performing Arts, please send an audition tape of you performing your best, preferably solo, 16-32 bars of a song. You can email the video directly or a video link (like YouTube) to makemusic@dallasacademyofmusic.com.
