School of Rock

The programs are perfect for students of all skill levels, and the staff is perfectly friendly and helpful. School of Rock Denver is a very professional outfit that will give your kids the opportunity to grow and discover themselves along side others with shared goals and aspirations. My son loves his time and friends there and has become a very talented musician who is far more confident and thoughtful than before he started. I couldn't ask for more.

My son has been a student here for more than 5 years and my daughter for 2+ years. We've had the opportunity to work with a variety of instructors and directors and all have been fantastic. The school is very well-run and helps students reach levels beyond what I've seen in other programs. The owner (Jim Johnson) and many of the instructors/directors, are well-connected to the Denver music scene and many play in their own bands. They provide real-world experience in a "clean" age-appropriate environment. It's been awesome to see how the students grow and advance their skills each year and get to know each other (& it's a little sad to see when the older ones age out!). The students are well-prepared for their seasonal shows and are a lot of fun to watch. They play seasonal shows in well-known venues around Denver such as The Soiled Dove Underground, Oriental Theater & Stoney's Bar & Grill. Ambitious, talented students can audition for the advanced House Band, which is even more fun as they get to play in venues such as Red Rocks Amphitheater and go on multi-day tours! Highly recommend if your kids are interested in playing in an authentic rock band setting and learning how to play well.

I love school of rock, I have been playing drums their for years, It has been an amazing experience. They have helped me find my love for music and creating music. The staff is amazing, helpful, and kind. If you have a child, I strongly suggest you try it out even if it's one lesson. And if you do like then try out the band camp it is a great way to make new friends and find other people who love music.

School of Rock has been an amazing for my teenage son (years 14-16). He has done three shows and has become a much better musician and and developed a lot of confidence though the program. The staff, music director and teachers have all been phenomenal. Jim is providing Denver kids with something special.

A fantastic place for your kids to meet like-minded friends who rely on each other's self actualization to succeed as a whole. Plus, the music is great!
