The Rock Box Music School & Stage
Have you ever dreamed of being in a band, performing on stage in
front of a crowd of people chanting your name? The Rock Box
Music School & Stage is here to make that dream a reality!
Since opening in October of 2016, North Port’s The Rock Box has
enrolled over 300 students of all ages, and nurtured them into growing
musicians specializing in VOICE, PIANO, GUITAR, BASS,
DRUMS, UKULELE, MANDOLIN, BANJO, VIOLIN, VIOLA,
FIDDLE, CELLO, WORLD PERCUSSION (DJEMBE, CAJON,
ETC), TRUMPET, FRENCH HORN, TROMBONE, TUBA,
FLUTE, CLARINET, SAXOPHONE, and many other instruments!
“Our experience with The Rock Box has been phenomenal!” says
one parent. “We have been through a couple of other schools, but
nothing like this. Real musicians that obviously love what they do.
True rock stars, and the most down to earth people we have ever
met in the business.”
“We’re so much more than just a music school” says Angel Bartolotta,
creator, co-owner, and drum teacher of the award-winning
Rock Box Music School & Stage. “We give people the chance to
live their dreams. We’re laying it all out on the table and putting
these opportunities right into the hands of our students, encouraging
them to use their talent to reach their goals. I believe in the
importance of music education and the performing arts in the local
community. The Rock Box allows students to express themselves
creatively in a relaxed and enjoyable setting where they can
learn teamwork skills and build lifelong friendships.”
“In addition to our private one-on-one music lessons,” Angel continues,
“we also host group classes, specialized workshops, field
trips, concerts and recitals, our annual Rock With A Cop event,
and our monthly Jam Night which is quickly becoming a huge hit
with the local community.
I’m especially excited about one of our new programs
which I call Homeschool Rocks! These are
classes and events reserved exclusively for homeschoolers.
It’s a great way for them to interact and
have fun with other kids their age. These kids
wouldn’t normally get this in a traditional homeschool
environment.”
The Rock Box has been going strong since 2016,
and in 2018, they grew and expanded into the
unit next door! The Rock Box is now a 2,800
square foot facility with 9 private lesson studios,
4 comfortable lounge areas, a full venue and
stage, and a demo recording studio. The Rock
Box is definitely the place to be!
“We’re here to strengthen the area’s music scene
from the ground up with students of all ages” Angel
concludes. “You’re never too young, or too old, to
pick up an instrument and rock!” For more information

Help with the Mosquito Explosion
Mosquito Joe of Port Charlotte has successfully
completed our first year with many happy customers
who are enjoying their yards again. Now is a
great time to begin using our service. We can get
your property protected before the heat and rains
begin which creates optimal breeding grounds for
mosquitoes. They love to lay their eggs in puddles
and standing water in drains, gutters, planters, old
tires, buckets, etc. The Gulf Coast offers very favorable
conditions for mosquitoes. It doesn’t get
cold enough to kill the eggs, and the warmer it
gets, the quicker the eggs hatch. As it gets warmer,
the females are looking for a blood meal before
laying her eggs. They are looking for YOU and
your pets to feast on! Did you know only female
mosquitoes bite? She only needs an inch of water
to lay 200 eggs, which quickly hatch in to larvae
within 48 hours. Our technicians are trained to
look for standing water and treat the larvae thus
ending their life cycle. Then they spray around
your property, creating a barrier around your
home with repels and kills adult mosquitoes when
they make contact. Our products also kill fleas
and ticks, making for happier pets!
