THE BIMM MISSION

RUN BY MUSICIANS FOR MUSICIANS

BIMM was conceived by music industry professionals who have been there and done it! It is run by musicians for musicians, who have the musical ability and music industry experience to share knowledge of how to have a career in music.

In the experience of the BIMM team - as recording artists, managers, producers and A&R directors we have all been lucky enough to work with some incredibly talented people in all areas of the music industry. Making records with professionals who consistently deliver hit singles and albums changes the way you think as a musician.

BIMM TUTORS ARE

  • Are incredible musicians and songwriters and music industry professionals
  • Have stadium level touring and multi-platinum hit record experience
  • Have top session credits
  • Regularly contribute to national music press in journals such as Guitarist, Total Guitar, Guitar Techniques, Rhythm, Guitar Buyer, Bass Magazine, Accoustic Magazine and Music Week
  • Are dedicated teachers as well as working professionals, who are at BIMM because of their commitment to music education.

YOU CAN SHARE THAT EXPERIENCE

Very often musicians who love music more than anything in the world find it hard to know which way to go, or who to turn to for help. Great music education is about setting realistic and obtainable goals. It's about us not only helping you to play and sing better than you thought possible, but also to help you develop a strategy for becoming successful as a professional musician. Whether you want to be a recording artist, song-writer, music teacher, session player or simply make a living out of doing what you love to do - BIMM can help.

WHAT WE BELIEVE IN

  • Commitment - setting the highest standards in the class room, on stage and in the studio.
  • Respect - towards you and your career, great music past and present and the professionals who give up their time to be in the classroom.
  • Real music industry involvement - from top professionals that will benefit all the musicians at BIMM.

WHAT WE EXPECT FROM YOU

You must put everything you have into your work as a musician. You must take your development as seriously as we do. No one is saying that your time at BIMM will always be easy. There will be a lot of fun times but there will also be many obstacles to overcome. It's up to you to make the most out of this opportunity.
