“We are pleased we can present the camp in Nashville this year,” said Bob Cauley, Muzak Heart & Soul Foundation president. “Nashville is home to a variety of music genres from Grammy rock icons to American Idol superstars — and everything in between. This year’s students will have a unique opportunity to meet and hear from today’s top music executives and creators,” Cauley said.
After experiencing music industry careers firsthand and making valuable contacts, many Noise! participants go on to exceptional professional accomplishments. Blake Gray, Noise! 2004 Alum, came to the camp with a dream of becoming a professional singer and songwriter. For the last several years she’s done just that in Nashville, the epicenter of the booming country music business. While pursuing her career as a performing artist, she’s also influencing other artists’ careers by co-writing country hits and working as an executive assistant at Music Central Records. Blake says the networking skills she learned at Noise! have been key to her success. “Through networking, I’ve met so many people that have helped me get where I am today,” Blake says.
This will be the 7th year for Noise!. Over the years the Muzak Heart & Soul Foundation has helped close to 200 students, from 25 different states and as far as Jamaica and Kosovo, cultivate their career path within the music industry.
The Muzak Heart & Soul Foundation, a 501(c) 3 non-profit charity, was established in 1998 by Muzak, one of the world’s leading providers of music and other media services.
