QUIET RIOT Guitarist's 'School Of Rock' Featured On FOX 61 WTIC-TV; Video Available

April 9, 2008

Hartford, Connecticut's TV station Fox 61 WTIC-TV aired a two-and-a-half-minute report on "Alex Grossi's School Of Rock", a school in Vernon, CT that teaches music as well as the business side of the record industry.

Watch the report below.

"Alex Grossi's School Of Rock" which was started by guitarist Alex Grossi (QUIET RIOT, HOOKERS 'N' BLOW) had its grand opening this past Monday (April 7).

Alex Grossi was born and raised in Connecticut. At age 15 he decided he wanted to be a "rock star" and has not looked back since. 16 years, over 3,000 gigs in over 15 different countries later, he is.

Alex has toured, written, performed and recorded worldwide with members of GUNS N' ROSES, KISS, QUIET RIOT, AC/DC, MTLEY CRE and SKID ROW among many others, He has also been signed to five major/independent labels, including Atlantic, Elektra, JVC and Century Media.

"I wish they had a school like this when I was first starting out," said Grossi, "I would get so excited every time I came home from Hollywood this past winter and would see the progress that was being made in the construction of the studios. Now that it's done, it's like a dream come true."

"Alex Grossi's School Of Rock" features four sound-proof rooms, including a fully equipped live recording/rehearsal studio that can accommodate any and all levels of bands, from beginner to professional."

Said Grossi: "There are a lot places to take lessons, but to be able to interact and ask questions to multi-platinum artists in an intimate setting is not only going to be an amazing experience for people of ALL age groups, but an inspiring one as well, not to mention a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. I am proud to be filling a void that has been left empty for far too long in this area."
