In our Summer Jam sessions, you'll learn to play in a band and record music in a state-of-the-art production studio featuring cutting edge production technology. And you'll also have a lot of fun jamming!

"Summer Jam" consists of five days of creative instruction and jamming with professional coaching, instruction, counseling, performance and fun. "Summer Jam" is for students of all instruments, including voice students, and has an emphasis on rock music.

The dates for Pine Island's Summer Jam 2008 sessions are:

• Session 1: June 23 - June 27
• Session 2: July 7- July 11
• Session 3: July 14 - July 18
• Session 4: July 21 - July 25 (TBC)

Class is held daily from 9 am to 1 pm in our state-of-the-art, air-conditioned Pine Island recording studios in Byfield, MA. We are located just off of I-95 at exit 55.

Summer Jam sessions are open to most instruments and are limited to 12 selected participants per week. This limited registration insures a quality experience. Participants must be able to play their instruments at an intermediate level and be between the ages of 10 and 17. Full bands are also encouraged to sign on.

All members of the bands formed will participate in the arrangement of the material to be played. Everyone plays and everyone is recorded!

Performance Experience

At the end of each Summer Jam session, usually on Friday or Saturday evening, a concert will be performed for friends and family members. Everyone plays! Check out our Summer Jam gallery of pictures for an idea of what the session is like and a sample of the music performed by the participants.
