Kick off the summer with our June LARS Live – featuring THREE talented DJs/Producers! This virtual performance showcases some of our Audio Program students best work! Tune in and chill to the cool summer vibes.
The beat breakdown is one of the most important elements of a hit song— performing artist Leon Kittrell II will breakdown famous beats over the years, as well as a few student submitted songs. Infused with fun games like “Guess the Groove”, Leon will take us on a musical journey where we strip away the vocals and other instruments and focus solely on the drums & percussion of some of today’s biggest hits.”
