Winning Auditions Workshop January 14, 2017 3pm $10.00 Join Music Authority and instructor Melissa Loggins for a workshop on acing auditions. Melissa's background in both performance and production has put her on both sides of the audition table many, many times.  Whether you're auditioning for musical theater in school or for the band of your dreams, the basics are the same: preparation, confidence, and assimilation.  Bringing a seven string guitar to a country gig?  You're probably not going to get the part.  Singing "Popular" at your next musical theater audition?  BORING!   Join Melissa to get a leg up at your next audition! Please register by January 10, 2017 A HUGE Thank You to Anastasia We want to give Anastasia a huge thank you this holiday season.  It's not easy keeping up with teachers, students, and parents but Anastasia does an amazing job.  She keeps track of who's here and who's not, sorts out accounting issues, and tracks down absences, credits, and make ups. Thank you, Anastasia! Music Authority's five bands played for a packed house at Green's Tavern in Flowery Branch on November 13.  It was standing room only in the restaurant that features live music and great food. The opportunity to play gigs like Green's Tavern are part of the Showcase Band and Rock Ensemble programs - designed to give students of all ages the experiences of a gigging band.  Music Authority currently offers two, audition only, students bands - Rise and Eclipse.  There are three Rock Ensemble bands - Unveiled, Transcend, and our adult group - Vintage Cab. Rock Ensemble still has room for keys and bass players - all other spaces are full! Audition Information for Rise and Eclipse is available now. Request your registration packet today. Please email Melissa at [email protected] for more information. Classical Department Show Sign Up: "All That Jazz" February 11, 2017 Sign up for the spring Classical Depatment show - All That Jazz.  For solo performers.  Register at the front desk and we'll assign you a song for the show.  There is no cost to participate, but tickets to attend are $5. Have you heard about Music4Chief?   This non-profit raises money to provide at risk teens with musical mentorship and instruments through Music Authority.  Named for former Music Authority Instructor, Justin Cain (we lovingly called him Chief), the non-profit was started this year by Music Authority Family member Pam Sherlock.  Drop your change in the scholarship jar at the register or contact Pam at [email protected]. Do you need a place for your holiday party?  Music Authority's Backroom is available for rent! Reach out to Melissa in the office for more information at 770-886-9066!
