Little Kids Rock, the United States’ leading nonprofit provider of music education and free instruments to public school children, is currently reaching over 109,000 children with weekly music lessons amidst budget cuts that are eliminating music education from some of the nation’s most disadvantaged public schools. More than 24,000 current Little Kids Rock students are being taught in 240-plus New York/New Jersey schools in communities that have been affected by Hurricane Sandy.
Video of Bumblefoot playing the GN'R classic 'Sweet Child O' Mine', as well as TAYLOR SWIFT's 'Trouble', with students from Mott Hall Community School in the Bronx can be seen below:
