Avalon the Band
Avalon School of the Arts was started in 2004. Since then Avalon has provided quality Arts education to the West Michigan community in Dance, Theatre, and Music. Avalon currently has over 800 students enrolled with 34 instructors & 2 office managers.
Avalon owner, band leader & manager Rich Burkholder is a lifelong professional performing musician. He has performed thousands of shows and managed many different bands. Rich thought with so many amazing musicians on the Avalon staff, it would be a fun idea to start a band with them. He got the teachers together and they played some songs in Avalon's music ensemble room one Saturday afternoon. That was the beginning of Avalon The Band.
Avalon The Band's mission is to have fun providing music and customer service at the highest level. Musicianship, showmanship, and sound quality are top priorities for the band. Professional musicians, professional sound, professional performance, professional experience. This is Avalon The Band.
