Summer Band Project
Form a Band In A Week With Other Young Musicians
Summer Band Project is a five-day music project designed to spark creativity, build confidence, and get young people making music together. Whether you're picking up an instrument for the first time or already jamming at home, this is your chance to form a band, write original songs, and perform in a final showcase for friends, family, and staff.
You’ll get access to real studio spaces – including a live room, vocal booth, and production studio – plus expert support from professional musicians and youth mentors.
