How our organization got started
“Life By Music” started as a motto—something we’d say as we chased our dreams of becoming professional recording artists. As we achieved those dreams, we quickly realized we wanted to do more with our music than just “be in the music industry.”
We knew sharing our passion with those in need was the only way to survive the bumpy ride of the music industry. We wanted our art to do some good for humanity, so we devised a plan—to work with the youth and to show them how powerful music and the arts are in this life.
Growing up, music was a superpower for us. We worked on it every day, and music quickly became an integral part of our lives. Because of music, my brother and I have toured the country, played in front of thousands, connected with amazing people, and signed numerous record deals.
Learning and having music available at a young age gave us the ability to turn what we love into our careers. We want to help ensure more kids get that opportunity.
So, in 2016, before an acoustic show in Club Madrid at Sunset Station, we hosted 12 kids from a nearby Boys & Girls Club. We created a fun and safe experience, where they could come and learn some music, draw and paint on guitars, walk around our stage area, and then go eat at the buffet.
The kids got a feel for what being a musician is like, and they had a very memorable experience.
And, just like that, Life By Music went from being just a saying, to a full-blown 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization.
