Big Music School & Studios

Ever dreamed of being in a band?
Whether you're chasing a long-held dream or just want to escape the daily grind, Big Music’s Over 18s Band Program is your ticket to two hours a week of pure fun, creativity, and connection.
Join a real band, meet fellow music lovers, and rediscover the joy of playing and performing live.
Two Great Ways to Get Involved:
1. Seasonal / Gig Night Bands
Join a coached band in our fully-equipped rehearsal studios, rehearse a themed set of songs over a 15 week season, then hit our venue’s stage at for an epic Gig Night. Each band is guided by a professional musician and assigned a killer setlist tailored to your group. It's the ultimate experience for musicians ready to rehearse weekly and hit the stage with confidence. Cost is $95 per week for a 2 hour session., charged weekly for 15 weeks.
2. Flexible / Jamming Bands
Not quite ready to commit to a fixed-term program with a gig date looming? No problem. Our new Jamming Bands are designed for players who want to ease into band life with flexibility.
We’ll match you with compatible musicians based on your availability, interests, and experience. Then you’ll be invited to a no-pressure jam session with a coach in our fully-equipped rehearsal studios. If the chemistry is right, you can continue rehearsing together at your own pace — and maybe even perform at one of our Band Showcase Nights. Cost is $95 per week for a 90 minute session, paid weekly ongoing each jam you attend.
ARE YOU 18-29?
