The first and most important thing is that you must be interested in playing tunes that you like !! This may sound obvious or even crazy but we firmly believe at OCEANROCK that there is no point in learning tunes that you do not like. So, listen to CDs and the radio, fill up your ipod or iriver, go to Download, T in the Park and every live gig that you can and get excited about the tunes!! Then your music learning experience will be so much richer because you will be rehearsing like crazy to play your favourites!!
Playing instruments is all about techniques. How you hold a plectrum or stick. How you tune it. Even how you clean it properly!! At OCEANROCK proper technique is demonstrated, taught and reinforced at all levels. A student can expect to learn techniques which will dramatically increase the ability to play.. Great technique means faster learning and thus more fun!!
Here at OCEANROCK we teach the ROCKSCHOOL system for Guitar Bass And Drums. ROCKSCHOOL grades are accredited by Trinity Guildhall College of Music in London and are the equivalent of piano grades.
