Testimonials

Hear from the WAM Community

Often I feel discouraged in other larger organizations with tons of men. This was my first WAM event and I really appreciate the openness and supportive community. There are a lot of random resources out on the internet but WAM helps focus the search and study!

WAMCon Attendee

WAM has been a true game changer for me. It has provided me with a rockstar community of women and gender nonconforming friends that truly inspire me and want to help elevate my artistry. WAM’s amazing network and connections have also allowed me access to spaces that have opened my perspective on what is possible for me in the music industry.

WAM Intern

I just see WAM going from strength to strength, it’s really life-affirming. I draw endless inspiration from everything that WAM undertakes.

WAM Intern

I want to say I came into WAM with no music experience and I learned so much over my time at WAM and now I think I found my new passion. Thank you!!

GOTM Student

I’ve been so inspired by these classes and feel so grateful for the community we’ve started to grow – both in this cohort and as part of the larger WAM family.

WAM Academy Student

“I’m at a music conference this weekend that is very male dominated. I’ve been able to recall what I’ve learned in class and felt so much more confident to join in with DAW, microphone, and frequency chats. Even just understanding the right terminology has been a game changer.”
