Our music-mad son joined Powerjam last year when he was 16 and has gained so much from the weekly rehearsals, being put together with like-minded young people. He has grown enormously in confidence and to our surprise has turned into quite the performer, loving getting up on stage at the regular, very professionally-organised gigs. He has also started songwriting and his band are due to record and release their first original song, such an amazing opportunity. Anna, Andrei and the team put so much work into developing their young musicians, I wish we had discovered Powerjam sooner! P.M.

 

Our son has just graduated from Powerjam after being with them and his band from the age of 12 to 18. He thoroughly enjoyed weekly song writing, rehearsals and regular performances with his bandmates, who have become lifelong friends. The level of professionalism and commitment from Anna, Andrei and the Powerjam team is second to none. H.D.

 

Powerjam put lots of effort into the difficult job of arranging children into working bands and choosing and arranging songs for the bands to cover. W.P.

 

The weekly rehearsals are run in a relaxed, safe and encouraging environment by mentors who are passionate and well experienced in their fields. The sets are carefully chosen for each group and performed at good quality gigs through out the year. We feel very lucky to have found Powerjam and could not recommend them more. T.B.

 

The joy our daughter has got from being able to express herself through music, with others in a professional but caring environment has resulted in her blossoming as a person too. The team at Powerjam put so much into providing the young people there an opportunity to develop as a band from rehearsals to performances. I wish I had had access to something like this when I was a kid! If you are lucky enough to be offered an opportunity to join - you should grasp it with both hands. B.E.

 

PJ has been so fantastic for our 12 year old son - he's been supported, inspired and empowered - such a fantastic opportunity for him thank you so much. M.G.

 

Words cannot describe how Powerjam has changed my sons life, he has gained a lot of confidence and experience, and has progressed massively in his music. We cannot thank you enough for everything you have done for us! M.K.

 

Powerjam is absolutely brilliant. The enthusiasm and passion of Anna and all the coaches is very inspiring. M loves being in the studio rehearsing and playing with the others. It’s brought fun and excitement to learning the drums which, as a beginner, has really encouraged him. We were so impressed when we heard them all play at the gig! He’s really improved as a drummer. M.B. 

 

The confidence it’s given my son, it’s changed him. These are amazing creative workshops. The members really love them. When you get bands that gel together like the bands do at Powerjam, it’s incredible to watch and they’re getting tighter and tighter with each gig we watch. I think it will help these members in the future in many many different ways, whether they stay in music or not. H.D.

 

L really looks forward to Powerjam every week and since joining is so much more confident, has made friends in the band, and finally feels a part of something. I don’t know how to better put it except that she is just a happier girl in general thanks to Powerjam. A.S.
