-Julia, a BMF Adult Band Member

"Playing music in a band is a great way of living in the moment and losing yourself in something that is way bigger than you. You are doing something so real when you are making music with others and then performing it. Most of us don’t do enough real things in our lives anymore. Especially not as part of a community."
-Sarah- A BMF Adult Band Member (and No-Longer-Beginning-Guitar Student!)

"Band is a rare opportunity to use a different part of my brain, I can literally feel the muscle cranking in a completely unique way. Working in concert with other people is beautiful. It is a kind of communication and expression that happens nowhere else, one that bonds you with people in ways that are way different than friendship."
-JillElyn, an Adult Band Member

It's never too late to start something new
Music lessons aren't just for kids! Our adult private lesson program is thriving - with lots of adults revisiting the instrument from their childhood, continuing their musical journey, or just starting something completely new!
Our teachers work with you to support your passion, choose music that YOU are interested in learning, and will take your music dreams to the next level.
- Beginners welcome
- No need to purchase an instrument just yet if you are not sure which one you need! We have plenty to use in our facility.
- Work one-on-one with a professional teacher who will guide you to achieve your musical goals.
- Experience a completely different type of music lesson from the ones you took (and quit!) as a kid.
- Play at least two gigs a year on the BMF main stage
A Private Lesson Gig (above). Teachers, along with fellow students, support you on stage as you perform your song. Play two gigs a year to share your music!
