School of Rock Louisville to expand with second location

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WAVE) - Due to the increased demand, the School of Rock Louisville will open a second location this August. The announcement came Friday from School of Rock officials.

The new location will be at 4121 Shelbyville Road in St. Matthews. Crews are working on the 41-hundred sq. ft. building that will teach students in the area through performance-based music education.

”We do more than just give lessons. Our kids really get the full music experience,” Melanie Scofield, School of Rock Louisville official said. “They take lessons and lessons are crucial, but they also get rehearsals and performances at real music venues throughout the Louisville region. We even take them on tour.”
