JB's House of Music is the perfect place in the Hudson Valley for your kids to learn how play an instrument, hone their music skills or join a rock band.

I really wish JB's House of Music was around when I was a kid.

Like many rebellious teens I was in a band in high school. I played bass guitar in a four piece rock band. Well, we didn't play music as much as we just made noises and drove our parents to the brink of insanity. We didn't have any help. No one was there to show us the ropes. We just picked up our instruments and had to just figure it out ourselves. Playing music is always fun but it was completely unorganized and chaotic and it really doesn't have to be that way.

Thankfully, the Hudson Valley has a place where kids ages 10-17 can go to polish their musical talent or join a local super group with band workshops. JB's House of Music  can elevate your talents in a number of ways with a variety of courses and programs.

Do you want to learn how to play an instrument? JB's House of Music can pair you with a qualified instructor to teach you how to play with extensive lessons either in-person or remotely.

Do you know how to play and want to join a band? One of the most popular programs at JB's House of Music is their band workshop. The workshops ae open to anyone who knows the basics of guitar, drums, bass guitar, piano or even singing.

The program teams up aspiring young musicians with experienced instructors to teach them what it takes to develop and work as a full band. Kids will learn how to effectively collaborate and work as a team in a controlled and safe creative environment.

The workshops end with a performance on stage in front of a live audience.
