Salt Lake Academy of Music: Beginner Rock Band Camp

For children with little to no musical experience, our Rock 101 camp is the perfect introduction to music. This camp provides an excellent opportunity to explore various musical instruments and determine if SLAM is the right fit for your family. Best of all, the week will end with a concert where the kids will get to perform for friends and family, showing off their hard work and new skills. They will go from potentially never having touched an instrument to playing songs from iconic bands like AC/DC – and it’s all possible in just one week!​ ​ Dates: June 9-13 and July 14-18. Each camp runs from 9 am - 2 pm. ​​ ​Camps are limited to 15 campers on a first come, first served basis and consist of five 50-minute sessions each day on topics such as bandcraft, stagecraft, acoustic, musicianship, music electronics, music theory, and how to be rockin' bandmate. Includes muffins, cookies, fresh fruit, and beverage provided in the lounge all day. The tuition for the week long summer camp is $400. Secure your spot at https://www.slamslc.org/rockcamp
