The Sessions

Do you want to play guitar, bass guitar, drums or have singing lessons and then perform in a band on stage?

What happens each week?

The first half of each session includes an hour of professional tuition in your chosen instrument or vocals, in groups of up to five students in separate rooms. Our tutors are all young professionals currently gigging or working as session musicians for recording artists.
During the lesson you will learn a variety of rock and pop songs that you and your friends have suggested, ready to play together as a band. Over time you will build up a set list of songs ready to perform. You will also be taught alongside the Rock School syllabus (Trinity Guildhall) and can take graded exams if you wish to.

The second half is a more social hour where the students will get together and perform the songs they have been learning in groups, eventually forming bands which will lead to various local gigs for some of our senior members.

Every July we stage a large Rock Concert where our members perform on stage to hundreds of people.
Please visit our Gallery page and see what you could be doing next summer if you joined The Rock Project now.

As well as playing music, we also hold a weekly music quiz suitable for each age group so that our members have a chance to sit down and socialise.

When do the sessions run?

We run sessions every week during term time Monday – Thursday from various locations around Buckinghamshire please click on the Times & Places page for more info.

Who can join?

Two-hour sessions run weekly for ages 7-11, followed by a separate two-hour session for ages 12-18.

Do I need my own instrument?

If you do not have your own instrument, we can provide one at no extra cost. We always provide drums to save you carrying your drum kit!
We recommend you obtain your own guitar/drums for practicing at home once you have decided to pursue your instrument of choice.

Can I come and try a session?

We welcome all abilities so come along and see if it is for you. Due to limited spaces in each instrument, please book your first session in advance. For more information, including current prices, please contact us.

Please note: Each tutor and anyone involved in The Rock Project holds a current enhanced CRB/DBS certificate
