I started teaching when I saw a band with 12-year-old musicians perform live. They were good, but I knew that I could help them reach the next level.

Bands - He has performed over 150 different songs with 14 different bands comprised of 30 different musicians.

Teacher - At Chris's Rock Band Academy music program, over 1,000 songs at 35 concerts were performed under his supervision between 2009-2019. The YouTube channel has a variety of educational videos written, performed and produced by Chris.

To ask them the following questions:
1. Which instrument(s) do you play or want to learn?
2. Have you had lessons before?
3. What are your goals?
4. What is your favorite type of music?
Most of the students at Rock Band Academy have been between 10-16 years old, but I have worked with musicians of all ages.
First, meet a teacher to discuss your goals. Then, decide if they have the right experience, expertise and personality to help you.
Despite the pandemic, I have enjoyed collaborating with former students to make music videos for the Rock Band Academy YouTube channel.

Chris is great at a lot of things. He can play just about any instrument, which is both useful for rehearsing bands and teaching instrumental parts and inspiring to kids. When they don't come in as part of a band, he's great at imagining who will play well together. He's also great at keeping young kids focused. He has tremendous energy. His push to perform live is a big deal for young musicians and gives additional incentives for kids to get their act together. He helps them put set lists together, encourages them to bring in songs they want to play, does band photos and videos, and keeps kids from humiliating themselves in public. And his insistence that bands split their share of the door charge at venues is great, not so much because kids "make money" but because the little money they make has meaning: they feel like they earned it. It's just an extraordinary program, and that's all because of Chris. He's a solid gold guy doing music education and performance coaching in a unique, kid-centric, music-loving way.
Excellent teacher and program. Both my kids went and both are now pursuing careers in the entertainment industry as adults.
RBA is a great confidence and creativity builder. Learning to play write and produce music all while having a blast! There’s no other place like it!
My son started as a guitar player, switched to mostly being a singer, and ended as a drummer! He loved all of the experiences and Chris' flexibility. The band's debut single, "I Like Gum" is still one of my favorites!!
the freedom it allowed in comparison to other music/band training programs- also the opportunity to get out to bars and play in front of people was amazing
