The Pop, Rock & Metal Music School of Maryville, Tennessee
POP
PIANO
Piano makes up the arrangements of some of the most beautifully emotional pop songs, and you'll be hard pressed to find a single pop song without synth. This classical instrument is just as important for top-charting songs as it ever was.
ROCK
PIANO
Piano has been a part of rock music longer than any other instrument, and it's importance has never wavered. From acoustic to synth, piano gives rock music incomparable depth.
METAL
PIANO
You would be shocked at the amount of piano--or more often the electric version, synth--that there is in metal genres, particularly newer styles. At RMA, you'll apply classical technique to these very contemporary sounds.
You are not restricted to one playing style at The Rock & Metal Academy.
While you will choose your genre(s) focus of study, you will be encouraged and provided opportunities by your instructors to grow and experiment so that your playing is your own individual, completely unique blend of your tastes and stylistic choices.

Another thing that sets us apart from other music schools:
WE DO NOT CENSOR
our students musical selections.
Music is a form of communication unlike ANY other, and
ALL emotions, light and dark,
require and deserve the freedom of expression that music provides.
But above and beyond, what we at The Rock & Metal Academy are MOST proud to provide is
A SAFE PLACE FOR YOU TO BE EXACTLY WHO YOU ARE.
Still not convinced?
Here's what our students, parents and collaborators are saying...
RMA is one of the
most amazing and welcoming places on Earth.
Even though you originally come here to learn how to sing, play an instrument, or write your own songs, you end up making life-long friends and people you even begin to consider family.
The teachers will NEVER give up on you...they will keep pushing you to try new things and get out of your comfort zone until you are the best that you can be.
