I will help you become a rock performer, just tell me about that

The head of the project " The Rock Project “ , Ant (Antony) Atkins, who has gone a long way from the beginning of the rock '60s and rock today, promotes young rockers in a long way by the name of “Rock”.

I met Anthony in the 10th grade, when I was studying a foreign language in Colchester in the Atkins’s family. He's a good friend and a great musician who has invested in "The Rock Project" for most of his life. At that time my English was much worse than it’s now, and so I  recently exchanged letters by email to him and learned more about his beginnings in this sphere.

“We have created a project in the distant 2005, then we did not know that we make a dream a reality of young rockers.” He said.

All developing successfully. A large number of young rockers are
interested in this project and this began to get a head of steam.

“The business was franchised in 2008 and there are now over 30 schools across the UK with new schools opening all the time.”

"The Rock Project" cradled many young guys and today famous musicians and composers and also guitarists, drummers and other.

“So far over 2,500 students have been a part of The Rock Project and some have gone on to record albums and tour the UK as part of bands formed with other Rock Project students.”

During this time, there was a huge number of participants in the concerts "The Rock project." For many children, this is a great test to go on stage, they feel tremendous excitement, but they are gaining experience.

“Sometimes guys have a hard time, but they overstep their fears.”

As for Ant , he has played nationally and internationally supporting original bands from the 1960’s and 1970’s. He is a seasoned performer at theatres, concerts, festivals including “The Cavern” and the Beatles Convention in Liverpool. Ant started playing guitar at the age of twelve with school friends who went on to join the early line ups of The Small Faces, Uriah Heap, Steeleye Span,The Baron Knights and T Rextasy. Ant played for many years with the party band Fat Old Dad and other bands on the cabaret circuit and “Festival Of The Sixties” weekends.

I learned that Ant joined the group "The Honeycombs" and the revived his career as a musician.

“ Now I'm going back to the old roots and is very much enjoying playing what will always be great music playing live and recording with "The Honeycombs".


Everything is just beginning, and he said, " I will devote the rest of my days this sphere! "
