School of Rock Midlothian, TX is already making serious noise in Texas 🤘🎸

Huge shoutout to owners Suzanne and Donald White for bringing the power of performance-based music education to Midlothian!

At School of Rock, our celebration of Pride isn’t confined to just one month; it’s built into our culture year-round. 🌈

Rock music has been a lifeline for self-expression, rebellion, and identity. For many in the LGBTQIA2S+ community, it’s where their voices were first heard and their truths first shared. From Prince’s iconic "I Would Die 4 U" and its gender-defying lyrics to Laura Jane Grace’s unapologetic storytelling in "Violence," rock has long amplified q***r experiences, even when the world wasn’t ready to listen.

We are proud to carry that legacy forward by creating inclusive spaces where students feel seen, safe, and celebrated every time they step into a rehearsal room or take the stage.

School of Rock made a major impact at Summerfest in Milwaukee this week, and the talent on display was next level. 🤯

600 students. 79 bands. 54 schools. 6 countries. 6 massive stages. Over three unforgettable days, our global community of young musicians delivered non-stop performances that brought crowds to their feet.

The week kicked off with a high-energy welcome event at the iconic The Rave / Eagles Club, where students performed back-to-back sets, competed in our annual Shred Contest (congrats to the winner who took home an epic guitar from DonnerMusic_US!), and joined an exclusive workshop with Eva Gardner, bassist for P!nk. Eva didn’t just talk—she played alongside our 2025 AllStars, sharing real-world insight and inspiration.

From there, it was two full days of shows across the Summerfest grounds. Between artist experiences with Andrew McMahon in the Wilderness, Bombargo, and Ava Maybee, and an unforgettable moment where five AllStars from the U.S. and Mexico joined the band Eggy on stage for “Bennie and the Jets,” this week was filled with once-in-a-lifetime opportunities. Eggy even introduced our students as “the future of music.”

These students came to Summerfest ready to perform at the highest level, connect with peers from around the world, and represent the very best of School of Rock on one of the biggest stages out there. A special thank you and shout-out to all of the parents, families, School of Rock and Summerfest staff, and our partners at Fender, Roland, and SJC Custom Drums. This experience would not be possible without you all, and thank you for making these students' dreams come to life!

School of Rock Alexandria, School of Rock Columbia, and School of Rock Annapolis brought the heat to Vans Warped Tour D.C. 🔥🎸

Invited by Loyal to the Craft and SJC Custom Drums, our House Bands hit the stage with custom Warped Tour sets and gave it everything they had. From the first note to the last cymbal crash, they delivered high-energy performances that turned heads and pulled in festival crowds.

Steve McKay, owner of School of Rock Alexandria, shared, “Watching our musicians shine on stage, seeing the hard work of our teams come to life, it was magical. Seeing crowds freeze mid-step, completely stunned by who was performing, it was electric and unbelievably heartwarming.”

The Columbia team added, “We’re still buzzing. Our students had the chance to perform four sets, take part in Shred Talks with industry pros, connect with fellow School of Rock musicians, and see the artists they’ve looked up to for years. It’ll go down in history as one of our coolest opportunities yet.”

We’re so proud of these students for showing up, rocking out, and representing their schools with passion and professionalism. We’re grateful to Warped Tour, Loyal to the Craft, SJC Drums, and Smartpunk for making this unforgettable experience possible.

School of Rock Vancouver, WA kicked off camp season with a week that left both students and parents feeling inspired ✨

One family shared that “the instructors were so nice— they were patient, gave breaks, made it fun, and were really clear. Our child learned a lot—it was an awesome week for them! We loved that they learned how to handle and break down equipment. What a unique way to learn both motor skills and gain mastery over something technical. The professionalism was top notch, and teaching to their level was just really, really well done. 10/10 experience.”

As former band parents themselves, they said the “culture of band dynamics, of youth playing music was a force in our lives that was immensely positive and life changing,” and they left camp “feeling very inspired by what the team is doing there.”

Huge shoutout to the Vancouver team for creating a space where kids learn, grow, and truly feel the power of music. Check out our music camps this summer!

Big things are happening for School of Rock Cherry Hill instructor Matt Hague! 🥁

When he’s not teaching drum lessons, directing shows, or stepping in as Studio Coordinator, you’ll find Matt on stage with his band The Callous Daoboys, who just debuted at number six on the Billboard charts for Best New Artist. Their new record is gaining serious momentum... and there's talk of a Recording Academy / GRAMMYs nomination. 👀

Matt joined our instructor team in June 2023. He brings the passion and performance-based approach he lives on tour into every one-on-one, rehearsal, and live show at School of Rock. Truly rockin’ it, both in Cherry Hill and beyond, we're proud to have musicians of this caliber helping shape the next generation of rockers.

School of Rock Shorewood brought the energy to the Pride Parade in Walker’s Point this weekend 🎉🌈

Shorewood's House Band rotated through a killer setlist of "Born This Way," by Lady Gaga, "I'm Coming Out," by Diana Ross, and "Man! I Feel Like a Woman!" by Shania Twain, and the crowd did not disappoint. Pride is always one of their favorite gigs of the year because the energy is unmatched, and this time was no different.

After the parade wrapped, their students were still so hyped they kept jamming on the float, entertaining the other floats nearby. One student even said it was their favorite show ever in three years with School of Rock.

We are proud to be part of such a vibrant celebration and even prouder of these students for showing up, rocking out, and spreading joy.

Come on down to the Walkabout! Our house band plays till 11:30 on Beech street, so see you soon!

Meet Abdullah and Yazan: two former School of Rock Fayetteville students who just opened for Guns N' Roses in Saudi Arabia. 🤯

Their journey started in our rehearsal rooms, where they jammed, learned, and got their first taste of the stage. That spark led to the formation of their band, Gimmix, where they began writing original music and pushing boundaries in Saudi Arabia’s rock scene.

Abdullah dove into studio work, and Yazan took on live sound. Together, they became pillars in their local music community by recording, engineering, performing, and always showing up. Even when they weren’t performing as Gimmix, they were building connections and creating momentum.

"We were always putting ourselves out there. We were working with artists, producers, engineers, recording and mixing their music. Seeking out every opportunity we could to be involved," said Abdullah. "When it comes to our performance, we actively hold ourselves to the highest standard we can reach while striving to present something that is new and different yet authentic to us."

Stories like this remind us why School of Rock exists—to help students find their voice, own the stage, and take their sound as far as it can go.

From our rehearsal rooms to one of NYC’s biggest music stages… our students rocked The Governors Ball Music Festivall! 🌆

Performing alongside some of the world’s top artists, these School of Rock students showed what happens when passion meets opportunity. From tight riffs to killer stage presence, they brought the energy, the talent, and the heart.

Swipe through the photos for a front-row look at the next generation of rockstars doing what they do best. Proud is an understatement.
