Kind Words
“Thanks very much for a fun week of camp, and a great show today! Our son, Jonathan, really enjoyed working with his fellow band mates, and coach, John. He had the amazing opportunity to learn more music, make new friends, and perform at a cool venue right in our neighborhood.”

“I loved the feeling of being in a real band and putting in so much effort to prepare for the final show. I remember struggling to perfect the intro to Sweet Child of Mine, But remembering that my bandmates and instructors were there to support me. Being in a band at such a young age awarded me strong leadership and collaborative skills that I am thankful for today.”
-Jasper Harris, Guitarist of Quarters of Change
