How long is a Rockness preschool show or school assembly?

Most preschool shows and school assemblies run about 45 minutes. The Big Show with Michael & the Rockness Monsters is also a 45-minute full-band experience. Rockness brings instruments, props, and sound equipment for gyms, auditoriums, and outdoor stages.

What's the difference between a school assembly and weekly enrichment?

Assemblies and preschool shows are one-day live concerts. Weekly music enrichment is an ongoing classroom program. Many schools book both — see our school programs hub for the full menu.

Rockness got all the kids up on their feet and dancing like crazy. Parents were very pleased and couldn't stop taking pics and videos.

Rockness was so energetic and did three awesome shows! We can't wait to do this again next year.

Our group was a little older than usual, and he was able to engage the entire crowd for the entire show. One caregiver remarked that this was the best library show she has ever seen!

— Maplewood Memorial Library

Rockness Music was very accommodating and aware of whatever needs my students may have had. I would highly recommend to those who work with special needs students.

— School educator

We had a Pre-K assembly with Michael, and it was awesome. The kids were extremely excited and engaged. I highly recommend Rockness Music for your next school assembly!
