Rock Band teacher Gabe Whitney has been working with children for over 20 years as a teacher, coach and musician. For the past two school years, Gabe has led Tampa Bay International School’s rock band students, who have practiced their craft at school and performed in concerts both at TBIS and at Noisemakers, the St. Petersburg music school Gabe founded in 2008. Gabe knows that music can be used to build bridges between all types of people; he began playing percussion in the fourth grade and never looked back. Through performing and teaching, Gabe has found a way to share his love of music with others. He is eager to once again lead our TBIS rock band students.
