RISING STARS (Grades 4-6)

Welcome to Rising Stars, our invite-only advanced band for young musicians who can’t put their instruments down. This program is built for the kids who wake up thinking about music and are ready to take things to the next level. Students will tackle more challenging songs, refine their musicianship, and push themselves as part of a tight-knit band. Along the way, they’ll collaborate on setlists, develop their sound, and take the stage for multiple live performances.

Is My Child Ready for Rising Stars?

Rising Stars is our invite-only kids band, designed for young musicians who are ready to take things to the next level. 

In most cases, Rising Stars students have been playing their instrument for 2–5 years, have prior band experience, and demonstrate a strong work ethic, positive attitude, and the ability to collaborate as part of a team.

If you feel your child should be considered for Rising Stars we’re happy to set up a short 15-minute audition to assess their skills and see if it’s the right fit.

All Rising Stars students are required to be enrolled in private lessons alongside the program. This ensures they have the individual support needed to keep up with the more advanced material and continue progressing as musicians.
