THE BEST WAY TO LEARN MUSIC IS TO PLAY MUSIC.
Big News: We're now a nonprofit!
In Fall 2024, we began the process of transitioning our small business, Utah Jam Bands, into a broader non-profit organization, Applied Music Programs (or AMP, for short). This transition is currently ongoing, and we're very excited about the opportunities it opens up for us as an organization!
​
During this transition, business will go on as usual! Our summer camps are going on as usual, and we've even added two new summer programs, Summer Songwriting and Jam Band Jr. The biggest change you'll notice from the outside is rebranding and an updated website by Summer 2025.
​
The organizational changes we're making will allow us to expand the programs we offer even further, involve more support from the community, and make progress on our goals, like making experiential music learning financially accessible to everyone and obtaining a permanent facility for our organization. Get more details on our FAQ page.
​
There are some significant costs and lots of time required behind the scenes to make this change. If you have anything to spare, we are now accepting tax-deductible* donations to help support that work. Thank you for all of your support! We're so excited to offer you all even more.
Professional musicians know that the thrill of performing on stage with a group of bandmates is what makes the hours of personal practice worth it.
Utah Jam Bands provides musicians with bandmates, coaching, and a stage. Our students go far because they know it's worth it!
WE MAKE LEARNING MUSIC FUN
But too often, music learners never make get a chance to experience this motivating part of music. They give up before they can ever really get inspired.
