If you missed local Fishtown students perform at their Winter Concert this past weekend for Rock to the Future, you're getting another chance to contribute to the future of music: 
This Wednesday, December 22, Philadelphia-area bands will perform in support of the next generation of rockers at World Cafe Live. Sets from The New Motels, Big Terrible, The Josh and Pete Band and The Best Westerns (members of various Philadelphia bands who are performing as a “super group”). Tickets for this all-ages, general admission show are $10. Proceeds from this concert will go directly to Rock to the Future.

Founded in 2010, Rock to the Future, is the only program of its kind in the city, which combines an afterschool music education and youth development program, at no cost to students. It is open to Philadelphia students between the ages 9-14. The program focuses on incorporating music education with academics to create success in school and in life by improving cognitive thinking, learning capacity, socialization skills, self-esteem and creative thinking. Students learn to play an instrument – their choice of guitar, bass guitar, drums, vocals or keyboards – and also receive homework help. Students attend the program every day after school at the Atonement Lutheran Church in the Fishtown section of Philadelphia. During the course of the year, the students will work together to write new, original music and attend free educational and musical seminars and workshops.
