What is the best age to start JamCore?

The best age to start the JamCore Live Performance Program is around 8 to 12 years old. At this stage, children have developed sufficient motor skills and cognitive abilities to understand musical concepts and handle instruments effectively. This age range also fosters creativity and confidence, crucial for live performances. Moreover, starting at this age allows for ample time to build foundational skills and grow with the program, ensuring a well-rounded and enriched musical education.

We have also provided a checklist available on this page outlining the important skills you should work on with your instructor to help prepare you for this live performance program

Do I need to own an instrument?

You should definitely have your own instrument. Performing live is an exciting opportunity and owning your own tool for the trade is highly recommended

Where will we perform live at?

Our JamCore program is designed for musicians who have never player live on stage or in front of a crowd. This is the perfect space to make mistakes, learn and figure things out. In efforts to keep the experience fun and without stress, we generally book our shows inside of our local studio theater or somewhere very safe. At this stage, it's all about having fun and wanting more.

Will out-grow JamCore and what's next?

We have designed our live performance offerings in stages so you can grow and advance at your pace. JamCore is the first stage of 3. After you have performed live a couple times in the JamCore program, we highly recommend that you make the leap into our BandCore program designed for intermediate to advanced musicians. This is where it all starts to come together. Bigger shows, harder songs, better musicians...you get it!
