Student Spotlight of the Month - Meet Brandon
Brandon joined School of Rock in January of this year and quickly made his mark in his first show, Hella Mega, and is now rockin in It's Alt Good on guitar and vocals.
How would you say your playing has changed over the last year?
Since I joined SoR my playing has definitely become more sophisticated in terms of my ability to play songs that require quick transitions or quick solos.
What are your musical influences?
I have so many but if I were to break it down into 3 artists/bands it would be Billie Eilish, Tame Impala, and Childish Gambino.
What is your favorite SoR show and why?
The Jimi Hendrix show because I had a lot more room to experiment and play the songs in a way I preferred to play them.
What do you like about School of Rock?
What I like most is the ability to interact with people who love music the way you do. You talk and interact with people who love the same music and bands and it helps create new friendships that are just harder to find outside this environment.
What advice do you have for new students?
Patience. It can be frustrating at first to learn a new song(s), but with time and effort, you can play anything you want.
