Music School Rock Band - Learning "Sweet Home Alabama"

Nicholas has been taking guitar lessons for several years from Ethan through Ampersand Music School.  He has progressed well and loves being able to choose his own songs to learn.

The music school just started a Rock Band program that matches kids together into bands that meet once a week to practice.  It is a great way for students to learn how to play along with other instruments.  Nicholas has been really excited and today was their first session but unfortunately the keyboard player couldn't make it.

Here is a video I took of the group at the end of their first day as they played Sweet Home Alabama!


I am really impressed at how well this came together considering that these kids had not met each other before today and Nicholas has never played that song before!  Going forward, they will each get to choose a song that their band will play and they will come up with a name for their band.
