Adult Music Making Programs

New Horizons Band
Founded by Dr. Roy Ernst and supported by AMC affiliates NAMM and NABIM, the New Horizons Band program involves more than 90 bands and 5000 people in the United States and Canada. The New Horizons concept typically applies to adults over the age of 50 in large band programs as well as smaller ensembles such as stage bands, Dixie bands, orchestras and chamber music groups. It's a band program for adult beginners - even if you can't read music - and people who may have played in school but put it aside for many years. By joining or starting a New Horizons Band or Orchestra, you can fill your life with music, new friends, fun and accomplishment.

The Weekend Warriors
Weekend Warriors is a program organized by AMC's affiliate, NAMM, that puts non-active musicians back on stage to relive their love of playing in a band, just for the fun of it. Local music retailers who participate in the Weekend Warriors program help "wanna-be" or "used-to-be" amateur musicians to have an opportunity to rock again, by matching up people with compatible interests, providing a space to practice and perform, and even helping with instruments.
