WHAT MAKES THE BLACKBIRD ACADEMY DIFFERENT?
The current state of audio education often puts students at a disadvantage upon graduation by leaving them with below average skills, not enough hands-on experience, and an in-complete education. There is often a high level of debt, which can limit a graduate’s ability to build a successful career.
The Blackbird Academy offers a new model in education. Our program gives students access to true working professionals and a hands-on experience using a world class collection of gear – all in a facility designed for one purpose: making excellent music.

The Blackbird Academy is a mentor-based program where students are taught by a unique cast of professional instructors and awardwinning guest lecturers.
Our campus is built on the foundation of Blackbird Studio, the Nashville home to a community of engineers, producers, musicians and technical staff who over the years have taken the art of audio recording to new highs.
The principles and beliefs that guide the Academy’s program are simple: Challenge and educate students by presenting them with real life scenarios an engineer would encounter on a regular basis. We believe training should take place in spaces that are not empty, cold classrooms but professionallydesigned studios and labs where engineers can hone their craft. Students graduate with a high degree of both practical and theoretical knowledge of the trade, which gives them the best opportunity to establish and build their careers. Our goal is to provide the greatest education, in the shortest amount of time, for the least amount possible.
