Bach to Rock Encinitas will present BACHAPALOOZA!, showcasing its student rock bands, acoustic performers, and glee groups. Students will be performing a mix of rock, country, and pop music for an afternoon of fun for the whole family on May 5 from 1 to 4 p.m.

“Like a sports team, performing in a live band builds teamwork, garners peer-recognition, and fosters self-esteem,” says Rick Walker, owner of Bach 2 Rock Encinitas. “The BACHAPALOOZA is a celebration of the students’ progress and determination, and we are happy to support a community cause while offering an exciting afternoon of performances.”

“Our kids are fabulous, and we love the opportunity to showcase them in our annual BACHAPALOOZA!” added Walker. “We are so proud of each and every one of them.”

BACHAPALOOZA will take place at the San Dieguito Heritage Ranch located at 450 Quail Gardens Drive, Encinitas, CA 92024. Admission is $5 per person for BACHAPALOOZA, with 100 percent of the proceeds going to benefit the San Dieguito Heritage Museum (SDHM). The museum was founded in 1988 to preserve artifacts, records and stories pertaining to the history of the communities of the San Dieguito River, Encinitas area. The SDHM seeks to preserve and share this history through a combination of hands-on history experiences and traditional exhibits.
