BANDHAPPY Draws Thousands of Applicants, Connects Successful Lessons During its First Week of Operation!

BANDHAPPY, the brand new and first LIVE online and in-person music education service, has already drawn thousands of teacher and student applicants! Since opening its doors, successful lessons have been completed with BANDHAPPY, many across international borders. During the first day of full operation alone, BANDHAPPY hosted lessons from Holland to Virginia, the UK to Baltimore, and Montreal to Norway!

Teachers that have given lessons already since the launch include Buz McGrath (Unearth), Jean Pual Gaster (Clutch), Rody Walker (Protest The Hero), Shane Blay (Oh, Sleeper), Cameron Losch (Born of Osiris), Dave Davidson (Revocation), Navene Koperweis (Animals As Leaders), Stef Broks (Textures), Chris Tilley (The Contortionist), Amos Williams (Tesseract), and more.

BANDHAPPY user Tim Hall completed his first lesson with Boris Le Gal of Chimp Spanner yesterday. “Just finished my first lesson with drummer Boris Le Gal of Chimp Spanner onBANDHAPPY! This guy has amazing technique and really helped me get mine back on track. Those who haven't heard of him or Chimp Spanner should really go and do it now, and then book a lesson with him!”

Another user, Kyle Boyce, states, “[BANDHAPPY] seriously is one of the coolest tools a musician can have. There is no reason why people should not be all over this. It’s a legit, amazing way to become better at what you love and to learn from people you actually listen to. Very much looking forward to my next lesson.”

BANDHAPPY teacher and Textures guitarist Bart Hennephof and student Matt Vodnik completed the first ever official BANDHAPPY lesson this week. “Just finished the firstBANDHAPPY online lesson,” stated Hennephof. “It works great! Brainstormed about riffs and songwriting, and jammed some Textures riffs with Matt Vodnik. This guy can play! The video and interface works great, no complaints. I'm looking forward to the next lessons! BANDHAPPY rocks!”
