You'll get to be in a music group with other people your age, playing lots of your favorite music, and have a teacher to lead, supervise, and critique.  Our bands are mentored jam sessions open to all instruments (not just the ones we teach), as well as voice, and meet once a week.  You'll play or sing songs, maybe get a chance to improvise or write a song with the group.  Your band will meet for several consecutive months and culminate in a live mini-concert or recital.

We offer 9 styles of groups,

with rock, jazz, and praise and worship the most common styles:

Classic Rock Bands · Modern Rock Bands· Blues Bands· Praise & Worship Bands · Jazz Bands

 Country Bands · Classical (Repertoire Class) · R&B Bands ·  Metal Bands 

Many places in our literature we've mentioned how important performing is for the advancement of your abilities.  So many areas are addressed by public performance - making your music cohesive and powerful, mastering macro-rhythmic abilities, etc.  Another great thing about public performance is that it helps take a little pressure off the musician as far as diligence and consistency are concerned - it's a lot easier to practice hard and shape up your pieces when you know 200 people are going to listen to them in 2 weeks!  That's a natural stimulant for practicing and it makes that work more organic and less dependent on your inclination towards working on your music any particular day. 

Being in a band, music group, or band class is even more useful.  Why?  Because now you're playing every week in front of others, but these others become your buds, your team.  You're working together to build a set.  You get the incentive to practice and build your music in a low-key environment AND the pressure for perfection is reduced, because you've got others there to share the burden of making the song work.  Whereas as a soloist it's all on you, sink or swim, but as a band or music group member the musical effort is divided now over 4 to 8 people.  What's required of you is less, but the product is larger, more exciting.  Definitely a win-win.  And being in a group improves your macro-rhythm abilities even more, because the other members keep going when you might make a mistake, and this helps you develop the ability to keep moving forward even when the song isn't perfect.

For years we’ve encouraged all students to get in some kind of band or rock band for the benefit it provides in moving “book learning” to becoming “real” musicians.  But it was just too hard for most students to find a similar group of people to play and sing with.  Finally we decided to just start them ourselves. 

"If you can already play or sing, even at a beginning level, then one of the best things you can do for yourself musically is to join a band.  You don’t have to be great to be in a band—being in a band helps make you great."

Bands are open to anyone, current private or group lessons students AND people who aren't taking lessons at all; they work great in conjunction with lessons as practical application of what is being learned.  We encourage (but don't require) all our students to be in a band as well in private or group lessons.  Band members commit for 4 months at a time (this is to insure the band won't have to cancel if less than 4 students continue).  4 is the minimum required to make a band and 10 is the maximum number of students in any band at Promethean.  Bands average 4 fifty-five minute lessons in a month and one of their sessions is either a recital or a band night (group performance).

Our band leaders take your goals seriously, so, as the wise mentors they are, they'll teach you all you need to get where you want to be.  It’s vital that musical educators coach each learner on how to grow as much as possible, whether that person just wants to just be in a band or tour with Coldplay.  So, coming from Addison, Allen, Carrollton, North Dallas, Farmer’s Branch, Frisco, Garland, Lewisville, McKinney, Park Cities, Plano, Richardson, Rowlett, Wylie or anywhere within 50 miles of here in Texas (or worldwide over the internet online through elessons) we are committed to your personal success in our groups and band classes.

We have band teachers at Promethean Studios for beginning, intermediate, advanced, and professional band students.  Our instructors customize our teaching to the music each player loves, with personalized instruction going on right now in blues, classic and modern rock, classical (repertoire classes), country and western, metal, pop, praise & worship, R&B (rhythm and blues), and jazz.  Students of all styles may also be eligible for our performance clubs, in which students perform for their fellow learners with a master musician to critique, advise, and mentor on improving abilities.

Our goal for band members, both vocalists and instrumentalists is to allow students to playby ear and also by note, and for them to be able to improvise if they want to (make stuff up); to be able to read music, or just pick music out from a CD or play spontaneously with another musician just by listening.  This is a well-rounded band member.  A school of music should enable musicians to be the soloist or accompany others, or to just sing and play at the same time – but at our “academy” we base everything on what you want to do and how to best get you there. 

To the student who says “teach me to be in a band", we would say this is the best school of music in the Metroplex.  Our educators have made your success and enjoyment their goal.  We are trying to cross the attitude of a music conservatory with just jamming with your buds or playingby ear – getting better and having fun.  Coming to band practice, improvising, impressing yourself and your friends, playing a great solo, learning great songs, cutting albums - we want to produce students who learn and enjoy, all across Texas.
