We have mentorship based learning at iAM Music. So we take our students and we give them opportunities like the iAM Music Fest to get real world performances that they get paid for, teach them artist development and how to actually make a career out of music.
We’re constantly challenged and pushed as artists by iAM Music
It’s this experience of music that you might not know. It’s discovery. It’s a multi-genre, eclectic music experience, so it’s not one thing. So hopefully it should be a sonic exploration.
When you’re so passionate about something, sharing it with an audience is so beautiful. There’s something so powerful about it.
