Chris Ward

“When performing with other musicians, it’s hard to think of anything that makes you feel so good — you’re in a magical world that non-musicians can’t imagine or experience.”

Chris Ward opened The Rock Project, Basildon in 2018 and runs sessions for ages 7-11 & 11-18.

A piano teacher and examiner for RSL Awards (Rockschool) and the International Baccalaureate, Chris holds a degree in Music and German and has extensive gigging experience in the UK and abroad. He has also accompanied well-known artists including Chubby Checker, Samantha Fox, Anthony Costa, and Simon Webbe from Blue.

Running The Rock Project allows Chris to share his love of music-making and inspire others to experience the joy of playing together.
 

So, whether you’re a beginner or an experienced musician — come along for a free taster and join the band!

“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."
