LOUISVILLE, Ky. — School of Rock Louisville showcased some of Louisville’s young musicians at their shows on Sunday.
More than 100 musicians, between the ages of 8 and 18, performed classic rock music as School of Rock celebrated the recent opening of its second location in St. Matthews.
The performances were held at the Zanzabar. Officials say the theme is "On Tour" and they are celebrating Kentucky artists. The shows will also include music by local artists, including My Morning Jacket.
“We are thrilled to bring the School of Rock experience to more Louisville families. At School of Rock, you learn faster because young musicians inspire and motivate each other while making new friends and having a blast," Melanie Scofield, the owner and general manager of School of Rock, said.
Officials say for many of the students, said their performance Sunday was their first show after joining the school.
"School of Rock is a community of people who love music and we can’t wait to introduce our one-of-a-kind method to more aspiring musicians,” Scofield said.
