Pali Adventures Offers Rock Star Camp Posted on Pali Adventures offers once-in-a-lifetime fantasy experiences for 9-16 year olds. Campers get the chance to park reality at the front gate and become — rock stars! It’s time to make your rock n’ roll fantasy a reality. Join us for Rock Star Camp where you write, record and produce your very own song! Classes are offered in voice, composition, producing, drums, guitar, bass, keyboards, recording and mixing.
At the conclusion of this wild ride, campers actually perform their tunes for the entire camp and take home a DVD of the concert! Whether you’re a beginning rocker or an accomplished player, this is the place for you. Future rockers will write, play and record their own songs. They will also learn vocal warm-ups and practice rhythm exercises. If campers want to play an instrument, they will be introduced to their choice of drums, guitar, bass or keyboards.
Young rockers also get a chance to work on the other side of the mixing board, and learn how to record and mix a song. With instructors to guide them, junior rockers are taught the basics of multi-track recording and production. They will also learn how to mix sound during live performances. All of this excitement and fun is under the direction of Joerg Stoeffel, recognized internationally as a highly acclaimed Session Guitarist, Producer and Midi Programmer for several major record companies, production houses and independent artists. Joerg earned his degree at Berklee College of Music, Boston. In Los Angeles he plays in the Joerg Stoeffel Group.
Rock Star Camp offers aspiring young musicians an opportunity to explore self-expression and gain confidence in an exciting and fun environment. Not only will they meet and interact with other young musicians, but they also are given unique access to music professionals who share their experience and knowledge to help them understand some of the options open to them in the music industry. Located on 74 acres 90 minutes from Los Angeles, San Diego and Orange counties, Pali offers ten weeks of programming, divided into one, two and four week sessions, guaranteeing that at least one will fit into your busy summer schedule.
