How we help
Three connected programs that meet local artists where they are.
Provide musicians with the resources to care for their mental health and sustain their art.
Empower creators to learn from industry leaders and build valuable skill sets.
Help creators build networks, find mentors, and collaborate on their music.
Fiscal Sponsorship
90% of every donation goes directly to the artist you choose. 10% helps us sustain the Helping Music Foundation for future generations of musicians. Our partner nonprofit helps verify that every recipient is an actively working musician.
Real impact
Access as independent musicians, that's the best gift we can get. This program gave us the resources and community to keep pushing forward.

In their words
Ian just hit the nail on the head with me rn to connect a missing link to something I believe my whole artistry was waiting on.
Jennapple
Meet My Music
The most valuable thing about this experience is HOME truly is a home for my art here as a Nashville Artist. The impact on my creativity, I must say, is the most valuable thing.
Thee Imani Cyel
Music City Networking
Listening to her passion about sync was energizing and very informative. My background is in business. Learning the business of sync gave me the direction I needed to turn my melodies into something marketable.
Kayla Storlid

I really appreciate having the opportunity to hear not only my colleagues at HOME's music, but also how the talk about their music. Understanding what motivates and drives them is very exciting and interesting.

Gary Earl

I was able to get connected with another composer. Sharing my music with others and receiving positive feedback was also really encouraging as an artist.
Anthony Lopez

I think the value of getting to meet others that might have a similar sound as you is super beneficial. I noticed a few people in the meeting has the same vibe and would be a good collaboration for them!

Be universal when it comes to sync. When it comes to covers: make it unique or no one cares lol.
Mikayla Lewis
Meet My Music
Being able to see other people's creative ideas/art and backgrounds and sharing my own art with different people each week is really something that drives me to keep going. I do get a bit nervous sometimes but I enjoy the experience of getting to know different people.

I am trying to learn more about licensing and syncing and connecting with creators and professionals in Nashville. Logan was really respectful of everyone and always provided constructive and thoughtful insights into every recording shared with the group. I really liked the meeting and the atmosphere.

Ian was super enthusiastic and positive about HOME and songwriting in general. He offered great feedback on every song played and a lot of insight into A&R.

Kenny's thoughtful feedback on each song. There is a dignity that he brings to every review. His perspective covers synch potential, production, song structure, and overall potential, and specifically addresses songwriter questions.

Kenny sharing one of HIS songs and asking for OUR feedback and ideas on artists. That was really empowering for us. Quite a moment.

Jer-Rico Moore
Sync Meetup
It opened my eyes on sync. How sync for, say, commercials is different than for film, and very much different than writing for radio and to sell. All different animals. I also appreciated the concept of listening to the vibe and what it makes you feel without lyrics. Very much appreciated your time and expertise. Quite an eye opener.
JR Vance

Can I give it 10 stars? One of the best events, brought together so many talented people, not just music people. Presentations were solid and the discussion afterwards was incredible. I wish it went longer!

Witnessing the ongoing efforts that HOME is making to establish, cultivate and maintain community. The diversity of speakers and guests are all indicative of the diversity of opinions on the subject.
