Always wanted to learn an instrument or sing, and play in a band? It's never too late!

Whether you're 18 or 80, The Rock Project Encore is your chance to finally make it happen. This is a dedicated school of rock designed specifically for adult learners — from total beginners to lifelong bedroom players ready to step into a band!

What do we teach?

Whether you’re starting from scratch or finally leaving bedroom jam sessions behind, we’ve got you covered. Our experienced tutors will guide you through your choice of the following:

Try it first, your first session is FREE!

Curious about joining? Come along for a FREE trial session and see if it’s for you! It’s a great chance to meet the team, connect with other members, and get a feel for what we’re all about. (Pre-booking is essential.)

​

If you like what you experience (and we think you will), you can sign up for the term, enjoy real performance experience, and decide whether to continue each term.

How it works

Each session is 90 minutes, split into two parts:

​

45-Minute Group Lesson

Learn your instrument in small, friendly groups (no more than 5 per tutor) in focused lessons tailored to your level and pace.

​

45-Minute Band Jam

Plug in and rock out! Put what you've learned into practice with a real band jam session, supported by our mentor team every step of the way.

​

Over the course of the term, you'll learn enough songs to take to the stage — actual gigs! You’ll perform at arranged events where your friends and family can come and cheer you on. You’ll be living the dream you’ve always had — and doing it in style.
