From Bedroom Musician to Band Member in Just 3 Days
Board of playing alone? Meet Your Future Bandmates!

You can play your instrument. You’ve learned some songs. You practice in your bedroom. But have you ever played in an actual band?
This is your chance to meet other young musicians, form a band, learn a song together, and perform it live—all in just three days.

What Happens Over the 3 Days?

 DAY 1: Meet Your Band (Tuesday)

FIRST: Get to know everyone through icebreakers and a casual jam session. We’ll figure out who plays what and at what level, then split into bands, duos, or trios based on your skills and musical tastes.

THEN: Your band chooses a song YOU want to learn (within your genre—rock, pop, indie, whatever your groove is). Start working on it together and getting the basics down.

This is where the magic starts—strangers become bandmates.

 DAY 2: Make It Sound Good (Wednesday)

PRACTICE, practice, practice. Get your song tight and performance-ready with guidance and support throughout the day. You’ll work on:

• Playing together as a unit
• Timing and dynamics
• Band communication
• Making it sound polished

If your band nails the song early? Great—choose another one and keep the momentum going!

 DAY 3: Show Time (Thursday)

FIRST: Final rehearsal to polish your performance.

THEN: Sound check, stage setup, then it’s time to perform your song(s) to parents, friends, and family. Show them what you’ve accomplished in just three days.

From “nice to meet you” to “playing live together” in three fun sessions.
