Backbeat Music Academy
Backbeat Music Academy offers music lessons for children and adults, focusing on exploration, creativity, and building confidence through a variety of instruments and group band experiences.
Each summer, Backbeat Music Academy runs music camps for kids, including rock band, songwriting, strings, and computer game music composition, with programs available for ages 3 and up.
The academy is located in the Raleigh Hills neighborhood of southwest Portland.
About the activity:
This camp is for string players of various skill levels to work on their skills and to play together. Campers will have the opportunity to build their own electric or bass guitars.
There is an additional $100 materials fee for this camp, and this gets them a real, playable, entirely decent electric guitar they can keep. (drop me a line with questions, and we can figure out how to get the materials for upgraded pickups, etc if you want, but they'll be able to change them on their own after this camp as well.
Bands are split up by age, skill and musical affinity.
