SUMMER CAMPS 2017
All the details for our 2017 Summer camps are here!

If you're interested in a camp, give us a call ASAP because these spots will go fast.


Rock Band Camp

So you wanna be a Rockstar? Donn Bennett Drum Studios and Rock-It Music Academy have teamed up once again to bring you the NW’s most popular Summer Rock Band Camp!

Players with basic understanding of guitar, bass, drums, keyboards, and vocals will learn how to combine their talents and perform as a band. This camp, now in its 12th year, is led by instructors Chase Culp  (The Crying Spell, Point One) and Eric Snyder (The Crying Spell, Second Coming). The camp will cover a range of topics including rhythm section, dynamics, songwriting, soloing, music business and rehearsal techniques.

Guest artists (to be announced) will teach segments on topics including music business, musicianship, recording, etc. Last year the students had the privilege of working with Rock and Roll Hall of Famer Roger Fisher (Heart), Lynn Sorenson (Spike and the Impalers, Paul Rodgers), Michael Shrieve (Santana, Mick Jagger, Spellbinder), and many more Pacific Northwest professional musicians. Students will also have group and private instruction during the week on their instrument.

Each band will have a professional rehearsal room equipped with a full PA, amps, and drum set provided by our friends at Evolution Studios. The camp is very hands-on and will offer students plenty of performance time. On the final day of the camp attendees will perform live onstage in a concert for their friends and families at concert venue in Seattle, one of Seattle’s most popular rock venues. If you’re ready to take your playing to the next level this one’s for you!
