Your band takes the stage at a local venue and performs live for friends, family and fellow Warriors.
Four weeks. One band. One unforgettable live show.
I WANT TO PLAYBEEN A LONG TIME SINCE YOU ROCKED AND ROLLED?
Your guitar's been sitting in the closet for 15 years?
Perfect.
You play at home but have never played in a band?
Perfect.
You used to gig and miss playing with other musicians?
You're in the right place.
Weekend Warriors takes away the hassle of finding musicians, organizing rehearsals and putting a show together. Skip's handles the logistics so you can concentrate on the important part:
PLAYING MUSIC AND HAVING FUN.
There's no age limit on rock & roll, and you don't need to be a professional musician. We'll help put you with players at an appropriate level and give your band the coaching it needs to get stage-ready.
YES — YOU REALLY DO PLAY THE GIG.
Four weeks ago, you may not have even known your bandmates.
Now you're on stage together.
Every Weekend Warriors session finishes with a real live concert at a local venue. Bring your family. Bring your friends. Get on stage and experience what being in a band is really like.
LOCAL MUSICIANS. REAL BANDS. REAL STAGES.

QUESTIONS? WE'VE GOT ANSWERS.
Not sure if Weekend Warriors is right for you? Here are some of the questions we hear most.
Do I need band experience?
No. Weekend Warriors welcomes musicians with a range of experience, including people who have never played in a band before. We'll help put you with players at an appropriate level.
What instruments are welcome?
Guitar, bass, drums, keyboards and vocals are the core instruments. Play something else? Talk to us — we'd still love to hear from you.
How does the program work?
Once your band is formed, you'll rehearse once a week for four weeks with an experienced musical coach. At the end of the program, your band performs a real live concert at a local venue.
Do I need to bring equipment?
Skip's provides the rehearsal space and the equipment needed for the band sessions. We'll let you know anything specific you'll need to bring.
What songs will we play?
Your coach works with the band to choose material appropriate for the group. At our introductory jam sessions, we use a selection of familiar songs to get everyone playing together.
What does Weekend Warriors cost?
The Open Meet & Greet + Jam Day is FREE. Full program enrollment details and pricing are provided when you're ready to join a Weekend Warriors band.
