This is the school’s seventh annual holiday show at BB’s. It’s always packed so get your tickets early and rock out with your kids as the All-Stars play some of the best classic rock from the 60s, 70s and 80s.
The Paul Green School of Rock Music was founded in 1998 with one simple but firm belief; that the best way to learn to play music is to PLAY MUSIC. Toward that end, we have spent the last ten years putting our students on the greatest stages in the country…from the legendary CBGBs in NYC to the Whiskey in LA, with performances at Lollapalooza, Austin City Limits, and innumerable amazing venues and events in between. By doing so, we hope to instill in our students an appreciation of hard work and love of music that will stay with them their entire lives.
The Paul Green School of Rock is the original and premier performance-based rock music school in the country for kids 7-18. Founded on Green’s original program of weekly, individualized instruction sessions augmented by rigorous group rehearsals, the Paul Green School of Rock effectively motivates students to practice—driven by frequent performances where they discover that how hard they work leads directly to applause, the most beautiful music of all. Each year, the 45 School of Rock branches around the country give more than 1,000 concerts at established venues including The Whiskey, BB King’s and Carnegie Hall and at festivals such as Lollapalooza, Austin City Limits, Zappanale and the annual SORFest. The School’s All-Stars have performed with Alice Cooper, Butthole Surfers, Eddie Vedder and Perry Farrell, among others, and have toured with Jon Anderson of Yes as his featured back-up band. Founded in 1998, the Paul Green School of Rock Music was the subject of the documentary Rock School, which regularly airs on A&E since its debut at Sundance in 2005. The School also served as the apparent inspiration for the Jack Black hit comedy, School of Rock. Currently in a period of rapid expansion, the Paul Green School of Rock plans to open in more than 60 locations by end of 2009.
