VANCOUVER, BC, July 13, 2009
/24-7PressRelease/ -- You can join a hockey league, a bowling league, a baseball league, you can even join a knitting league. But until now, you couldn't join a music league. Now, there's the LEAGUE OF ROCK, and it's coming to Vancouver on July 22nd.
Founded by Terry Moshenberg in Toronto in 2006, the LOR opens the door to the hidden musical population of 30 to 60 year old musicians who have careers and families. This is their chance to enjoy playing and jamming with other like-minded musicians without having to give up their careers and go on the road to be a rock star.
"You don't have To be 19 to rock out loud," says Moshenberg. "Doctors, Executives, even Lawyers are welcome! It doesn't matter what your skill level is, or how old you are. Everyone who joins the League of Rock comes out and enjoys a fabulous band experience."
The League's main event is the JAB sessions where members Join A Band for ten weeks to meet other adult musicians, workshop with pros, jam in great spaces, and record in world class studios. Professional producers help out at each session, and famous rockers even show up and workshop the bands! Everything is supplied for the musicians, including all gear, and even the pizza and beverages during rehearsals! Members just need to show up, plug in and play.
"All the gritty details are handled for you. It's simple. Sign up, show up and jam in a fantastic rock environment," continues Moshenberg. "There's no pressure here, it's just about having fun and playing music with other unsung heroes of Rock."
In Vancouver, the bands will rehearse in brand new rehearsal studios at Vancouver Rock Space, record in state-of-the art recording studio Nimbus Studios and jam in live venues like the Yale, which is hosting the LOR kick-off event on July 22nd.
In addition to the JAB sessions, League of Rock hosts full-day intensive sessions where members enjoy front of the line access to full-day hands-on workshops with professionals. Music-based team building and corporate retreat events are also hosted by LOR for companies and organizations where staff get to write, record and perform with famous and professional musicians.
