Together with his talented teaching staff, they use different instruments to accompany the student in practice, teaching part by part until the whole song's complete.  Playing in a band is just more fun than by yourself. 3 O'Clock Rock wants to give opportunities to kids and adults, connecting them through a community approach, and giving them a creative voice through music.

Billy and his team of teachers are extraordinary! They share a passion for music and performance with their students, and let them explore their own creativity. Could not recommend this program more highly!
Our daughter age 10 and son age 7 take keyboard and guitar lessons with 3 O'Clock Rock. Once you join the amazing community you realize it's far more than a music lesson. It is a space to build skill, confidence and a deep love of music. I am grateful to the team for their investment in our children. Nothing better than seeing our daughter be brave and have fun performing! Thank you Billy, Dylan and Sahil!

I purchased a bass guitar from 3 O'clock Rock that was described as mint condition. The condition was better than mint it was exceptional. It was superbly packaged and delivered in a timely manner. Mr. Ribak is a man of his word and you can bank on it. It's the gold standard of truth.

Hi Noriko, the 30 minute private lessons are $40 each. We do offer a combination of 30 min. private and 30 min. group lessons for $55/week. Students learn to write songs, record, and make releases complete with artwork. Please check out our student releases at 3oclockrockrecords.bandcamp.com and let me know how we can get your child involved in our programs. We would love to have them apart of 3 O'Clock Rock !

Hi! Congratulations on the drum set! We would be happy teaching your child drums. Yes, we are accepting students for online private drum lessons. Please email me some available times that would work for you and your child and we’d be happy to set it up. Billy Ribak Program Director Info@threeoclockrock.com -

Thank you for your reply. How much for the drum lesson for a kid 30 mins weekly. I was more interested in the group lesson, sounds more fun for my kid. -
