Q: How does it work?

A: We gather at 5:00-6:00pm Weds Nights. We gather, connect and the we first get everyone setup. We have a group session where we go over band skills and songs. Then we have time with our breakout groups to practice and apply what we are learning. Then we come back together and make music together as a group.
