AFTER SCHOOL ROCK BAND -with Charlie Smith

Participants will form a band and meet for practice at the House of Music once a week after school for 6 weeks at a time. We'll learn to perform songs from a variety of modern and classic rock bands including Aerosmith, Pink Floyd, Metallica, Led Zeppelin, Jimi Hendrix, Weezer, Foo Fighters, Green Day, Nirvana, and more.
