High School Summer Music Program

Discover a career in the music industry.

At the NSLC on Music Industry & Production, you’ll master music production as you collaborate with your peers, tour LA studios, and gain valuable industry insights.

My NSLC experience was incredible. I made so many new friends and my eyes were opened to many new experiences. I’m so glad I came and stepped out of my comfort zone.
