GMA SUMMER CAMPS

Making the Band Camp

The most popular music camp in Southern Maryland

"Now in our fourth year"

Making the Band Camp redefines benchmarks for fun, learning, motivation, and teamwork. Bands produced in this camp end up staying togetherand playing, sometimes for years. Memories that keep your child reminiscingyear round about the excitement and sense of accomplishment they felt. Campers are grouped together based on their musical interests. They work with producers that in just two weeks make areal band out of them.
The bands will become the total package as we develop their sound, stage presence, performance, and pushthem to their musical limits. Each band will have its own producer, that willhelp each band through two or more songs to be performed at "Battle of the Bands" at the end of two weeks. The bands will compete for top prize live and in concert in front of an audience of friends and families. The winner walks away with a three-song demo of the bands original music, and year round performances.
