North Main
Music is offering a 6-week beginner guitar after school program at Peter
Woodbury School in Bedford this fall, from September 19 through October 31. Guitar lessons for 8 to 12 year olds will be held on Thursdays from 4:30 pm to 5:30 pm, and lessons for kids ages 12 and above will be held on Thursdays from 5:30 pm to 6:30 pm.


This fall marks the fourth
year of the beginner guitar after school program at Peter Woodbury. Instructors
for this fall’s program will be Jeff Moore and Mike McAdam, co-directors of
North Main Music. During the program, students may use either an acoustic or
electric guitar.  Students will learn how
to pick, strum, do warm up exercises, and play their favorite songs.

“We’re excited to offer
this program again this year,” said McAdam. “It’s rewarding and inspiring to
see the students who’ve participated grow and gain confidence through music;
and several students who have started out in this beginner class have then go
on to further advance their guitar skills through private instruction.”

Established
in 2003, North Main Music offers high quality music instruction for kids and
adults. North Main Music teachers are all graduates from renowned music
programs such as Berklee College of Music, the New England Conservatory, and
Southern New Hampshire University. When first opened by owner and director,
Mike McAdam, the school provided electric guitar, acoustic guitar and bass
lessons. In 2007, McAdam expanded the school through the addition of voice,
piano and drum programs. Then, in 2010, North Main Music opened a second school
in Bedford, NH. North Main Music now has over 160 students of all ages, whose
goals range from pursuing a career in music, to indulging in their love of
music as a hobby.
