Who the weekend is for

For everyone with no time during the week: adults with a full calendar, teens who want to try it out first, and returners who have not played with other people for years. All instruments, all levels – we put the group together so that it fits.

On Saturday you learn the song and play it together for the first time, Sunday is transitions and polish, and in the afternoon you record it or play it for a small audience. Two days, one finished song – band does not get more compact than this.

Frequently asked questions

I have not played for years – can I join?

Yes, that is exactly what the crash course is for. A few chords or one groove are enough to start; we work out the rest together over the weekend.

Do I need to read music?

No. We work with chords, riffs and your ears. If you read music you will use it – if not, you will not need it.

What if I cannot make it that weekend after all?

Let us know as early as possible by WhatsApp or phone. We will talk it through personally and see what is possible.

Is food included?

Yes, meals during the breaks are included in the price.

What do I take home?

A recording of your song – and the experience of getting a piece on stage with people you did not know two days earlier.

What does the weekend crash course cost?

€149 for Saturday and Sunday, 10:00 to 17:00 each day – including meals, backline and the recording.
