NEW YORK, Jan. 18 (UPI) -- VH1 Classic says it is working with Mark Burnett Productions on a new U.S. television series called "Rock 'n' Roll Fantasy Camp."

The four-episode show is to premiere on VH1 Classic in July. Production is set to begin next month.

"VH1 Classic and Mark Burnett Productions have teamed up to give fans the ultimate music experience to fulfill their rock 'n' roll fantasies. In a new, hour-long, weekly docu-series, viewers will get to watch as 15 musicians from a variety of backgrounds and cities go through the transformative process of becoming 'rock stars,'" the network said in a release.

The show is expected to follow campers as they form bands, rehearse, get mentored by rock 'n' roll icons and, in the finale, perform before a live audience in a well-known rock venue.
