As a parent, I feel strongly about introducing my children to music that makes me feel something.  At the same time, I feel strongly about them finding their own music and falling in love with songs and bands they can call "their own".

We've always had music in the house and encouraged kids to make noise through whatever means necessary. Albeit on my drums or guitars or pots & pans on the kitchen floor...I love hearing rhythm & music coming out of my kids.

Now if only they could hone it into a cohesive "piece of music".

Enter QC Rock Academy!  Since 2011, they've been teaching music and putting together bands to make the world more musical.  From their annual "Battle of the Bands" to their first ever "Quad Cities Youth Music & Arts Festival", QC Rock Academy is always coming up with ways to get the students in front of a crowd.

Come ghouls, goblins, & creatures of the night. Join QC Rock Academy for a Halloween Band Bash on Friday, October 28th.
