Please give us a short summary of your website?
The Rock Club LLC is a membership based program which encourages musicians of all ages and abilities to be grouped together in a band environment over a 6 week period. During this time the members will be put into bands, discuss song selection and meet officially once a week in The Rock Club studio where full instruments and coaching by a professional and seasoned musician will be provided. First and foremost, the main aim of The Rock Club is for each member, after 5 weeks of practicing as a band, to play at the designated Rock Club venue, performing a 20 minute set in front of family and friends. Additionally, members of The Rock Club program will have access to news and upcoming events via the website, preferential prices on merchandise and instruments and the chance to network with like-minded musicians. The Rock Club LLC will differentiate itself from its competitors by marketing the ability to group individuals into a band forum, provide instruction by a professional musician with all equipment provided at all times with the opportunity to perform in front of family and friends at a premier Hollywood venue, all for a once off fee of $639.00.
