12 ukuleles (4 sizes), 2 keyboards (regular & kid-sized), 3 triangles, 3 tambourines, a dozen egg shakers, bongos, tongue drum & a looper (and your own voice) are there to play. Enjoy each one for its own personality, and learn how they connect to each other.
Learn to Play & Write Music
Dave provides instruction in how to play each instrument – including creating chords, strumming, picking, singing –as well as rhythm, tempo, basic music theory, and song structure, while also giving you room to explore on your own,
Perform Live
You can take what you've learned and play an instrument, or sing, or both even write and sing your own song – while performing (solo, duo, trio...) into microphones and a complete sound system.
have Fun
It's fun to have new experiences, meet new people, and play music together. The learning happens naturally, and when we enjoy ourselves while learning, we learn more about the music – and about ourselves.
