At MAMM camps, students learn to play (or write!) songs in a band and perform live at a local venue. Instructors guide campers through selecting, rehearsing, and performing songs, and offer inside tips on what it’s like to be in a band.
It’s the total rock star experience!

Various approaches to songwriting will be discussed, and all students will be encouraged to bring their unique voices to the songwriting process. In the second week of camp, students will be guided through the recording process, using techniques and equipment similar to what they might have in a home-recording setting. Campers will participate in a final performance the last day of camp, and after the camp they will be sent a final mix of their original song.
