Sessions from Studio A - Rock and Roll Institute

For those about to rock, we salute you. On this special edition of Sessions from Studio A, we head to The District Bar and Grill in Rockford for a showcase from Rock and Roll Institute. Their motto is start a band on Monday, play a show on Friday. We'll hear lots of different bands and talk with students and instructors.
