We’re choosing to look on the bright side this c

We’re choosing to look on the bright side this coming summer. ☀️ It’s weird, because summer’s still over two months away, it feels like it’s an eternity away. And we all know the world could change ten times over before it arrives (thank you, COVID!) But we’re going to keep the hope alive that by summer, we’ll be on the up and up. That we’ll be able to so some really fun things together. Maybe even take some of those family holidays we all had to cancel last summer?? Stay tuned to hear what we’re going to be up to Summer 2021! #goodthingscoming #learnmusic #lovemusic #backbeat #yeglocal

It’s Monday. And we can’t wait for the weekend

It’s Monday. And we can’t wait for the weekend. But not for the reason you might be thinking. This Saturday, we’re kicking back, pouring ourselves a beverage and hosting one of our favourite nights of the year: Backbeat Unplugged. Backbeat Unplugged is where some of our singer-songwriters perform live (via Zoom) and all the sudden your weekend just feels RIGHT. #wecantwait Want to be part of a future Backbeat Unplugged?

At Backbeat, we firmly believe in using Bart Simps

At Backbeat, we firmly believe in using Bart Simpson to teach your child piano. Especially if he’s in a skeleton suit. 😂 We’re launching a new game in our Bigger Beats Piano class this week and we can’t stop laughing about it. #getready #aycaramba! #learnmusic #lovemusic #backbeat

And we have a winner! A big congrats to Mr. Kellan

And we have a winner! A big congrats to Mr. Kellan for being the winner of our 2021 Guitar Pick Design Contest. 🙌🤘👊 We can't wait to pick out the colours of celluloid to go with the sweet robot theme. And what do you think, should we bring back the glow-in-dark guitar picks for this round? Beeeeep. Booop. Meeeep. Booooop. Beeep. Beep. Beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep. Boop. Save your loonies because when these guys are ready, we know you're going to want one! #weloverobots #welovekellan #guitarpickcontest #backbeat

Government announcement days feel like a rodeo! Yo

Government announcement days feel like a rodeo! You never know which way the bull is going to buck you, but you have to try your best to stay loose and bounce back. 😅 Based on what the government initially announced yesterday, we were unsure as to what these latest restrictions meant for you and your child's music lessons. Thanks for your patience as we worked to seek clarity. We spoke with a government representative this morning and clarified that all music lessons, including group music classes for kids under 18, are still permitted. Private lessons for adults are still permitted as well. Our Parented Little Beats class as well as any rock bands involving adults are cancelled effective immediately. As always, online lessons and online participation in any group music classes remains as an option. If any of this changes, we will do our best to let you know as soon as possible. Here's to this blessed rodeo! #thebeatgoeson

When it comes to Easter chocolate, we’re puritan

When it comes to Easter chocolate, we’re puritans. For our hunt, it’s either @jacekchocolate or @sweetlollapalooza all the way. The one exception we make is Mini Eggs. We pretty much eat them for breakfast this time of year. Who’s with us?? (And if you like Eggies, well, we don’t know what to say to you exactly...) #happyeasterweekend #justsayNOtoeggies
