School of Rock, the leader in performance-based music education, is coming to Summerfest this year to take its students center stage with live performances throughout the festival. More than 500 students from School of Rock locations across the world will arrive in Milwaukee to play in their own student-led bands across six different stages. Throughout the festival students will share the spotlight with some of the biggest names in music including mainstream and legendary rock acts, Imagine Dragons, Arcade Fire, Journey and more.

School of Rock provides students of all ages an exciting and engaging learning environment for taking guitar lessons, drum lessons, bass lessons, keyboard lessons, and singing lessons. Drawing from all styles of rock and roll, School of Rock students learn theory and techniques via songs from legendary artists such as Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, and Frank Zappa. Thanks to the school’s performance-based approach, students around the world have gained superior instrumental skills and confidence on the big stage, with some moving on to record deals and larger platforms such as American Idol, The Voiceand Broadway.

“At School of Rock we know one of the best tools in music education is live performance,” says Rob Price CEO of School of Rock. “Summerfest is the perfect opportunity for these students to experience real stages that can inspire their performances and ignite their passion to pursue music for the rest of their lives. We’re proud to be apart of such an iconic music festival and rejoice in the experience of these student-led bands.”
