Welcome to Worcester School of Rock & Performance...

At WSRP you can join a band or join with your band to learn performance skills, with instrumental lessons and rehearsal time. You will get to perform with you band at the end of each term with other performance opportunities during the term.

Junior Summer Show review 2010.

The Extent of My Stupidity play a couple of indie hits with a more professional sound that the band has developed with the help of Rhys. Great music played by Callum, Harry and Joe with Rhys on Drums.

Chicken Lickin Pixies of Asia Mark2 play some matured music. Great visuals on the backdrop, (take note other bands you can do a backdrop next time if you want) The band has the new addition of keyboards creating hypnotic melodies throughout the keyboard based songs, a kind of new wave prog rock vibe coming across in their own song. Jodie came over very confident sing and playing keyboards, James displayed his technical ability and Zak was excellent on drums. A great performance.

MBL are first timers at WSRP with Ben in a new band on his 2nd WSRP term. They played some Green Day songs and do a good job, lead well by Luke on guitar and sang really well by Matt. Great work all round.

The Wigs have great fun on stage playing a mix of rock and pop songs, we don't restrict bands to just playing rock at WSRP. But the songs do come over rocky and sound great. Chloe is again looking natural on the guitar and confident on stage, Lauren does brilliantly on her first WSRP show and no surprises that Epi on drums, plays accurately on all the songs.

Division are brand new at WSRP playing The All American Rejects. Jess and Emily did well. Considering the extra pressures of playing live for the first time and only being at WSRP for 5 weeks, they produced a good result. Jess has a great voice and Emily is talented on the drums. Can't wait to see how they develop.

Contagious pull off a great confident set with some great songs played tightly and sung well. Dani's voice comes over well and Toni delivers the songs very well. Alex, Ross and Joe play as a unit and worked well together. I am impressed with how good they sound.

Cheesy Riffs play a great version of Black Parade with great dual vocals from Maisy and Cat, They work really well together. Leannah on drums has improved so much, playing the song and remaining focussed. Out front the song came over well. Sam and Luke played the guitar parts well. Despite Harry not being at the show, the band came over well without the additional guitar part.

Thanks to all the junior bands and to the Parents for their support over the term.
