Music is a universal language that embodies one of the highest forms of creativity. A high quality music education should engage and inspire pupils to develop a love of music and their talent as musicians, and so increase their self-confidence, creativity and sense of achievement – National Curriculum 2013

BAM! is dedicated to providing interesting and exciting instrumental tuition and band coaching. Our philosophy is simple; whether it’s learning your first chord, writing your first song or performing your 100th gig, it’s always important to BE AWESOME!


A word from Andy Walker, founder of BAM!

I set up BAM! in 2016 to provide exciting, interesting and independent instrumental tuition predominantly into schools but also as a platform to teach privately and to help develop young bands.
I firmly believe that real world experience, with many years of gigging, recording, writing and forging a career in music, is vital in delivering the best of instrumental tuition and band development.

For me, music is about passion. A passion for performance, a passion for creation and a passion for education.
It is my mission to help to educate and inspire the next generation of rock/pop musicians and to help them experience some of the greatest things they will ever experience, through music!
Especially at school age, learning an instrument can help to focus the mind, give you a real sense of identity and an outlet from the pressures of school life!
