Gigs

Collaborations
Musicians Institute is not only a great place to improve your craft, it’s also a place that gives students an opportunity to meet and work with fellow students outside of their field of study, with MI Collaborations. We encourage students to reach out to their peers, whether forming a band, needing a bass player or needing music business advice. Collaboration is important when networking and moving forward with your own personal goals.
Marketplace
Buy, sell, trade unwanted items and musical gear with fellow students and alumni.
My Digital EPK (Electronic Press Kit)
An electronic press kit (EPK) is a professional music resume music entities (promoters, talent buyers, music supervisors, etc.) use to understand who you are as an artist. This kit takes the form of a website and include things such as news, pictures, bios, live performances, music and tour dates. Developing the flawless EPK is critical to your success in making connections and scoring gigs. MI Connects assists by having a one stop shop approach as an EPK can be built directly in the system with steps to ensure a complete EPK is available for promotion.
