Their commitment to innovation and imagination mirrors our beliefs that every child deserves a space to explore their inner world through music.

“I grew up experiencing an immense amount of trauma at home. Creating music and connecting with other musicians was the key driver to me finding emotional regulation, moments of joy, and build my confidence. I believe in sharing that same opportunity to future generations, because trauma sadly isn’t going anywhere. I am grateful to see that there are good humans like yourselves, doing God’s good work.”- Jeremy Scott with Orbital Junky
