Students from School of Rock Montclair Tour East Coast to Build Awareness About Exoneration Initiative

Nine student musicians representing School of Rock Montclair recently performed concerts at venues in New Jersey, Manhattan, and Washington, DC in support of Exoneration Initiative, a non-profit organization that provides free legal assistance to wrongfully convicted persons.

Stops along the students’ four-day “Rockapocalypse Tour” included shows at The Lincoln Memorial; The Doo-Wop Museum and Fox Park in Wildwood, NJ; and Webster Hall in Manhattan.

“We piled some of our top students onto a bus and gave them a real taste of the rock n’ roll touring life,” says Matt Sandoski, owner of School of Rock Montclair.  “Their musical talents not only helped to support a worthy cause, they also had a fun and exciting experience that they’ll never forget.”
