Three reasons why ROC Star Academy is THE choice
for aspiring musicians and their parents:
#1
Coaching and mentoring from real rock stars
ROC Star Academy was founded by a rock star —- singer/hit songwriter and musician Elvio Fernandes,
a member of the Grammy-nominated band Daughtry. He has also co-written and produced hundreds of songs for aspiring artists.
All coaches at ROC Star Academy are working musicians who will elevate your child’s confidence and fun factor as they learn to play like a rock star. Being mentored by some of the best professional musicians in Rochester is one of the key differentiators and points of pride for ROC Star Academy.
live shows at popular music venues and events
ROC Star Academy performers take the stage regularly at popular music venues and events, where they gain experience—and joy and confidence—performing live at all-ages shows.
In addition to official academy gigs and showcases, current ROC Star Academy bands collectively play hundreds of live shows each year—not just periodic recitals. The academy bands and alumni performing regularly in the local music scene, as well as nationally, include Jack West, BB Dang, Judah, Brody Schenk, Max Doud, Joey Monti, Anthony Blood, Cooper Scotti, and many more.
