The line outside The Met wrapped around the building and through the courtyard, overflowing onto Main Street in Pawtucket on Saturday afternoon.

The large crowd that had gathered entered the well-known music venue to hear bands and solo artists performing some classic and top-of-the-charts tunes, like “Cool Kids,” “Drive By” and “Buffalo Soldier.” A selection of the bands performed several original tracks as well.

There was a lineup of close to 30 different performances, all part of the fourth annual You Rock School of Music Spring Concert. Children as young as seven and adults up to age 70 took to the stage for the event, which is coordinated, hosted and operated by Sean Rogan, the owner and creator of You Rock School of Music.

Rogan established the school four years ago as a home-based business after an accident left him with a broken ankle. At the time, he was working as a professional skydiving videographer.

After graduating from Berklee College of Music with a bachelor of music degree in K-12 music education, Rogan said becoming a professional skydiver was one of the items on his bucket list. He achieved that goal, and for a few years was able to earn a living doing it.

Following the accident, Rogan turned back to music. While at Berklee in the mid ’90s, he and a group of friends had started a band called Big D and the Kids Table, which went on to perform hundreds of shows in more than 20 countries and record multiple albums. He left the band in 2010 to start a family, and now plays in a Boston-based Huey Lewis and the News cover band, Power of Love.

“When I broke my foot, that income stopped and I started to get a little nervous, thinking, ‘How am I going to support my family?” Rogan said. “I told myself, ‘You have this skill set, now how can you make money? Through teaching music.’”

Rogan said he made up some flyers and strolled his Edgewood neighborhood, hoping that his grassroots venture would pay off – which it did, in a big way. After stuffing mailboxes and covering neighborhood cars with the flyers, Rogan said the calls began to pour in.

“I got one student and then another and then another, and everybody told their neighbors. And before I knew it, I had a full schedule of students,” he said.

Currently, Rogan sees close to 100 students a week and maintains a tight operation in the basement of his Edgewood home. The school is beginning to outgrow its current location, however, so Rogan has secured a storefront at 1856 Broad St.

In the new location, Rogan said he will be able to take additional students because he has hired a small team of teachers to assist him in his commitment to music education.

“When this all happened, when I broke my foot, I really didn’t know what I was going to do, but typically I am a pretty positive person. I believe in PMA – positive mental attitude – and so I figured through my background with performing and skydiving, I have learned to be relaxed and to work with people. And I think that has really helped me to teach,” Rogan said.  “I love what I am doing now … I couldn’t be happier, and when I teach, I want these kids to be able to find that same happiness.”

Nate Poshkus and Carter Wolf, both students of Rogan’s, said that he is an amazing teacher and role model.

“When I was about seven years old, I told my mom I kind of wanted to learn to play music. And then we found this flyer stuck to the windshield of the car, so she called it, and I have been working with Sean ever since,” Poshkus said. “He is so helpful, even when we make a mistake, he just helps us through.”

Wolfe, who plays the bass, has been a student of Rogan’s for just over a year, and said in that short amount of time he has learned a lot.

“I had never played music at all before I started at the school,” Wolf said. “And now we are playing together as a band at events, it’s awesome!”

Rogan said that he holds private instruction for his students as well as group jam sessions as a tool to get the students performing at their peak.

“Music is a lot like soccer in terms of practice,” he said. “Of course you have to practice by yourself, kicking the ball around the field, but it’s a lot more fun to play together.”

Rogan said he groups the students together by age and ability and then forms bands, helping the bands with stage presence and all of the tools that they need to “be great musicians and have fun.”

Kate Motte, whose son performed a solo at the spring concert, said “the people of Edgewood are lucky to have someone like Sean in our neighborhood.”

“Sean creates a spark for these kids, he gets them excited about it and makes it fun,” she said. “You think they would be scared or nervous performing in front of all these people, but look at them. They are smiling. They love it because he makes it so fun for them.”
