Learn and perform Rock ’n’ Roll on an elite level! Our expert instructors and celebrity mentors make our live music education program comparable to none! We are conveniently located at Brookdale Community College in Lincroft, NJ.

Kids aged 8 through college are given the ultimate rock band experience.
When you enroll your child in our music program, you are investing in their future in music. It all starts with a traditional audition process, followed by personalized music education classes that teach a repertoire of songs they will then perform live in a full-fledged rock concert. There’s no better rock academy for aspiring musicians in Red Bank, Asbury Park, Middletown, Monmouth County, New Jersey… the world!
“I wanted to take rock-n-roll out of the basement and prove that it offers the same positive reinforcements of social development and accomplishment as classical music, dance, or drama for kids right here in New Jersey,” -Bruce Gallipani, Rockit Live Foundation founder and executive director. Our school of rock seeks to hone the talents of young rockers across New Jersey, including Red Bank, Asbury Park, New Brunswick, Holmdel, Rumson, Fair Haven, Middletown, and surrounding areas.mattis.
Hand picked by our executive director, Bruce Gallipani, our instructors have decades of musical experience, honed by university training and experience playing in, or opening for, some of the most acclaimed bands in the business. Our instructors are passionate about rock ’n’ roll and believe in our mission, which is why we can offer guitar lessons, vocal lessons, drum lessons, saxophone lessons, bass lessons, and piano lessons at a higher caliber than other music schools.
We are developing musicians, but we are also improving self-esteem, listening skills, math skills, testing skills, stress relief, creativity, collaboration skills and communication skills. We encourage our musicians to use their talents to better support their community by either creating awareness, or raising funds, for a variety of local worthy charity causes. The Rockit Live Foundation also funds numerous scholarships each year, including private lessons and musical instruments, allowing us to bring music education to serious minded musicians, regardless of financial backgrounds.
