The excitement never ends! The Band Factory is where private lessons & live performance meet! This auditioned program is designed for students to gain the best DCM live performance opportunities & obtain first-hand experience playing in a band. The course is designed to introduce students to writing, recording, & performing music in a group. It’s a fun & creative way to increase musicianship & build confidence!

 

Students are placed in original bands based on similar age, interest, & ability. Bands meet once a week to develop a set for a variety of public performances representing Deep Cove Music, the North Shore, and our local community. Through this program, students have the unique opportunity to experience becoming self-sufficient working musicians.

2020-2021 COVID-19 SAFETY ADJUSTMENTS:
We're really excited that our bands are coming back again! We're proud to offer "social distance band factory" this year.
 
Fortunately, as with many professional recording studios, we have isolation booths! They're used usually to separate sounds during recording sessions.
 Ours isolation booths are attached to the main band room by panes of glass, so band members will still be able to hear, see, and play together while maintaining a safe distance.
 
Including mandatory masks, hand sanitation, and temperature checks, we feel confident everyone will be able to stay safe during DCM band practice.
 
This year is also exciting because we have a very special theme we're calling "Our Inspiration". In previous years, themes were chosen in part because of their mass appeal for our in-person theme concerts. This year, since our concert is virtual we're simply asking our bands to let us know what inspires them.
 
This year bands will choose their favorite songs from their favorite bands and artists, showing us what inspired them to learn their instrument.
 
With new considerations comes new possibilities and we hope you can join us!!
