A beloved tradition since 2013, the Rock the Peel concert is the culmination of FBRA's music program which equips all students with foundations in guitar and piano. Students eventually specialize in an instrument of choice, with frequent performances helping to build stage confidence, self-expression and leadership. The Orange Peel show is the capstone performance of the year, with bands playing in front of a huge audience, with professional lights and sound, on the same legendary stage where greats like Bob Dylan, Jack White, Blondie and Cyndi Lauper have performed.
French Broad River Academy (FBRA) is an independent middle school (grades 6-8) in Asheville, N.C., with dual riverfront programs for boys and girls. The school integrates rigorous academics with outdoor adventure, service learning, and international travel to help our students become confident, compassionate leaders, ready to take on the world.
