WHAT IS ROCKMASTERS?

17th June 2009

There are quite a few rock schools, but Rockmasters is one of the oldest and is also quite unique. The teachers are all members of famous bands from the past, and thus not only command respect, but also give the benefits of their collective years of experience.

Rockmasters is NOT interested in Grades. I know of no real rock stars who achieved any! However, to be a genuine (budding) rock star you need something else. You need enormous self confidence and the overpowering desire to ‘make it’! Are those who succeed better, musically, than all the others? No, they just want it more. The X Factor syndrome is for those who want to play Big Brother, those who yearn to be a ‘celebrity’. Thats not what being a rock n’ roll musician is all about. At Rockmasters we teach the kids how to function in a rock band. That means getting on with the other members and achieving the right levels of contribution to the band as a whole.

We will show you how to perform, and how to make the most of your talents. We will help to structure your original songs, to make them commercially acceptable…….but without ruining your musical integrity! This may all sound very grown up, and thus not suitable for younger kids. Not so. We have had plenty of 13 year olds who have gone on to play on various circuits, learning their ‘trade’. You are NEVER too young (or old) to Rock N’ Roll.

NEW DATES TO BE ANNOUNCED FOR 2010 SHORTLY!
