About Me


Second to none in amateur musician training, Power Chord Academy implements its critically acclaimed training regimen which introduces aspiring musicians to the next level of music--the professional level.
At Power Chord Academy, dedicated musicians ages 12-18 are put through the most inspirational, educational, and intensive week of their young careers. Never before has a program been offered so critically vital to the inherent success of developing musicians.
Our mentors provide the guidance, development, and refinement essentially necessary to attain industry-wide recognition and attention. During the session, our musicians are given the once in a lifetime opportunity to be a professional musician in which they will gain hands-on technical experience in critical areas such as digital-audio recording, song-writing, and on-stage performance as well as develop an unbridled understanding of the determination and dedication it takes to succeed in the music industry today.
Our educational program will not only improve fundamental skills and teach breakthrough concepts, but will take musicians step-by-step and show them how to go from the garage to an internationally renowned professional touring band. Whether it's pop or punk, metal or blues, Power Chord Academy provides not only the essential technical training and fundamental knowledge inherently necessary for success, but the greatest, most inspirational experience of an aspiring musician's lifetime.
