Bird

Bird is a music school, a creative space, a recording studio and record label, a performance venue and more. We’ve been teaching San Francisco’s kids (and more than a few adults) to rock since 2005.

Here, music and technology come together in a positive and safe environment. Students of all ages (7 to infinity) and skill levels are encouraged to use what’s current to enhance their creative musical ideas. We emphasize technique and exposure to all genres of music, enabling musicians to build on familiar ideas to produce something unique.

In addition to music and performance skills, playing in a band teaches our students cooperation, teamwork, self-confidence and goal-setting.  We like to think of our work as the intersection of music, community and technology.

Founder and instructor Lane Murchison is a singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist and music producer with deep roots in the San Francisco music scene.
