• Minimum Age: 12 years
• Maximum Age: 18 years

Students can participate up to and including the summer following their senior year of high school. Consideration will still be given for those students whose age is >18 during their senior year of high school.

Each student must audition for a slot on their primary instrument. Secondary instruments will also be taken into consideration. It is best to display the ability to sing and/or play percussion as a secondary instrument than to only choose a primary instrument.

Students can audition for All-Access on the following instruments:

• Guitar
• Bass
• Drums
• Keyboards
• Voice
