GET TO KNOW THE PROGRAM

A part to play. A group to grow with.

An individual lesson gives a student time to work through a musical challenge. Band rehearsal gives that work a shared purpose: a part to contribute, other musicians to hear, and a piece to build together.

Rock Idol combines these two experiences. Ask DEA about the current instrument options, weekly schedule, rehearsal duration, and performance plans for the group you are considering.
