What do we do when we give a guitar to a program and see them grow with enthusiasm? We visit and bring more instruments - guitars, violins, mics, and ukuleles!

We have about one month left in 2017, and so far, we've given more guitars (and drums and banjos!) than ever this year! We've continued supporting our programs in Nantucket, LA, Compton, and Haiti with supplies, plus added banjoes to Folk School JAM in Appalachia!
Here it is! The moment you've been waiting for since the 2016 Rock n' Roll Carnival. The Musack board and 2017 Rock n' Roll Carnival host committee are proud to announce the full lineup of the 2017 Carnival. Well, ok... not the FULL lineup. We're going to add some more surprise guests, so stay tuned. But for now...

Special Thanks to our Sponsors:
Malcolm Moore is an instructor for a Musack sponsored program at Larchmont Charter Hollygrove in Hollywood, CA. He is also a certified Music Medicine Facilitator and has some great tips for music and mindfulness.
In April, Musack ventured to the coldest tip of the Cold War – literally and figuratively…. We took guitars to the site of a former US army base in the wilds of Alaska that has been converted into a public boarding school for Native kids.
