Plugged In Band Program combines music education and philanthropy to create an inclusive community empowered to change the world.
We meet musicians where they are, welcoming students of all skill levels and abilities.
Through group and instructor-led practice, students leave Plugged In as more assured musicians with a keen sense of how their art is of value to their local communities.
Our classes include:
Youth Rock Band Class- Each band consists of 3-6 students and 1 teacher and consists of drums, guitar, bass, vocals, and can also include keyboards. Bands develop a set list and work as a group, all with guidance from our trained teaching staff. Band sets can include original material and/or cover songs chosen by the students.
