Join a rock camp

Joining a BMF rock camp is: • an opportunity to dust off an instrument if you used to play • a great way to learn the ins and outs of playing in a band • a chance to play music with others even if you have no experience*.

Throughout the year BMF offers 10-week adult band camps; and multi-week teen camps,

In summertime there are lil kid rock camps, big kid rock camps, and in July Mini Adult Camps that are five weeks long, with a festival style performance at the end.

The ten-week adult camps are typically album- or band-specific, and sometimes other variations, like the very popular entry-level 101 Camp*.  Every camp is led by an instructor/facilitator. Camps meet once a week for 2 1/2 hrs for 10 weeks. In the end, your band puts on a show for family/friends/the bmf community in a local venue. It's inspiring throughout. A blast, really. You can expect to make new like-minded friends, just when you least expected.

As far as genres go, offerings run the gamut.  We've been offering about 20 adult camps annually for 14 years.

Here is a video sampling some of our adult rock camp performances over the years:

Camps are pretty self-selecting. For example, beginners don't tend to sign up for things like YES or STEELY DAN.  And at the same time, seasoned players typically don't sign up for a RAMONES camp.
