Bass Guitar Lessons for Kids 8-13
There are many excellent reasons to sign your young person up for bass guitar lessons: it’s a fun hobby that is proven to increase brain function, cognition, problem-solving skills, focus, confidence, and self-esteem.
Learning to play also helps them learn to work cooperatively with a group, make friends, and further develop their emotional intelligence.
Plus, being able to play music provides a lifelong creative outlet and means of self-expression.
But here’s the important thing: None of these things can occur if your child doesn’t stick with it for the long haul.
That’s why we’ve developed a program to make it easy for your child to learn, practice, and play bass guitar. Our goal is to inspire them to make music a part of their lives forever.



Bass Guitar Lessons for Teens
Teens at Songbird can learn to play the music they love on the acoustic and electric bass guitar. More importantly, they'll learn the skills they need to start a high school band, play in the school showcase, or write and record their own original music. Our teens also can also get a foundation in music theory that can set them up for success as collegiate music majors.
The best part of bass guitar lessons for teens may be the social and psychological benefits. Not only do studies show improved academic performance, teens themselves say they see their music as a way they can distinguish themselves from the world, break down barriers between cultures, and meet people who share similar thoughts and values.
All of our teachers thought of music as a life-line in their teenage years. Now they are passionate about inspiring this generation of teenagers to find their musical voice.
