Rock Academy Melbourne 22 – starts January 11 & 18, 2021

We’ree planning on being back at Bakehouse Studios in January 2021, and while we may not be able to do a live show at the Central Club Hotel we’re looking at some cool outdoor alternatives.

Running over two weeks, starting January 11 and January 18, Rock Academy 22 promises to be a highlight of the past 12 months. We’ve all been doing it tough so this is a great opportunity to all come together and celebrate music.

Pending clarity from the Vic Government at the time, we’re planning on day 1 being an online day with a songwriting workshop and then time to start writing and working on songs in nominated bands.

We plan to be at Bakehouse Studios from Tuesday to Thursday for rehearsals, due to COVID we’re restricted on the number of band members and mentors we can have in a room at any given time, and you’ll need to wear a mask and use hand sanitiser constantly. We’ll have staggered start, lunch and finishing times each day to ensure everyone’s safety.

Each band will feature in the final video broadcast on Sunday, January 24th or 31st. See how the July show came together. In addition, we’re investigating the possibility of staging some outdoor live shows at the end of each week.

Your band will prepare an original and a cover song (same band members) written, arranged and rehearsed ready to perform in front of the camera on Friday, January 15 and 22 at Bakehouse. You’ll be given nominated times to come in and perform as we can only have 10-12 people at a time in the performance space (Scrap Museum). Have a look at how cool the show in July was.

We’ll record your performance live (audio and video) do some post mixing and then incorporate the videos from the Online Program to deliver the Rock Academy 22 show streamed on Facebook and YouTube on Sunday, January 24th and 31st (depending on which week you participate).

We all know how cool the online and in-person programs are, so the combination is going to be a blast in January, don’t miss out, book now.

Mentors for our 22nd Rock Academy aren’t confirmed as yet (rumour of a guy called Ben might come back), but as always we’re cooking up something tasty and special for all.

There will be limited spots for the in-person sessions at Bakehouse Studios, so be quick. We cannot add to the numbers as we are restricted by the Government policies. To keep everyone as safe as possible we have strict policies in place and ask everyone to apply commonsense. 

If you can’t make it to Melbourne in January or have safety concerns check out the details of the Online Program.
