Despite its success in priming over 20,000 musicians, producers, engineers, vocalists and music industry professionals for careers in every contemporary genre of music— rock, funk, R&B, hip-hop, jazz, blues, and fusion, among others—Musicians Institute (MI) is still one of the best kept secrets in the music education field. Located in the heart of Hollywood, just blocks from the Capitol Records tower, MI has an incredible history of innovation dating back to its origins in 1977 as the Guitar Institute of Technology (GIT), which broke new ground as a performance-based contemporary music school taught by working professionals. Within a few years, GIT was joined by bass and drum programs to form Musicians Institute and the evolution has continued to this day with degree and certificate programs for career-minded guitarists, bassists, drummers, vocalists, keyboardists, recording engineers, independent producers, guitar makers, music business professionals and filmmakers.

The best measure of MI’s success is the graduates themselves. The list of former students who have achieved success in the “real world” is long and colorful. MI alumni don’t just appear on the covers of music magazines, they fill the pages in between. Those who have passed through MI’s halls before going on to achieve notable careers include Keb ‘Mo; Weezer guitarists Rivers Cuomo and Brian Bell; longtime Chick Corea guitarist and fusion giant Frank Gambale; Chad Smith and John Frusciante of the Red Hot Chili Peppers, drummer Curt Bisquera (Elton John, Mick Jagger, Bonnie Raitt); guitarist Fred Clark (Chaka Khan, Ray Charles, Stevie Wonder); guitarist/producer John Shanks (Melissa Etheridge); the late Jeff Buckley; singer Angela Ammons, and recently former American Idol finalist LaToya London, who has just released her debut on Peak Records.
