Graeme and Clara Priestly

Graeme and Clara will be your first point of contact when you enquire to try a free taster at The Rock Project. 

Clara and Graeme Priestly’s love of music spans everything from Guns N’ Roses to Mozart – with a little Moby in between.

Clara grew up surrounded by music, inspired by her concert pianist grandmother, and played both piano and Cuatro (a small Latin American guitar). Graeme, from North Ayrshire, was raised on a mix of Bon Jovi and classical music, which he swears helped him study.

Their travels through Dubai, the Caribbean and Saudi Arabia have only broadened their musical tastes.

When they couldn’t find fun, group-based music lessons for their seven-year-old son, they decided to create their own — and that’s how The Rock Project Croydon was born. Clara and Graeme are passionate about helping children and young people learn music, build confidence and make friends — all while having a great time.

“I would encourage anyone thinking their child might benefit from playing an instrument to give the Rock Project a go. The tuition from the music teachers is fantastic and I've seen first hand how much my daughter has progressed on guitar as well as in confidence over the last few months."
