Backstage Pass Experience
The Inherit the Music Backstage Pass Experience taps into the power of live music to inspire, educate, and elevate the next generation of music professionals.
ITM partners with charities and artists to provide small groups of youth with once-in-a-lifetime opportunities to experience live music from behind the scenes, who might otherwise never get this chance.
From private tours of live music venues, to viewing artist sound-checks, to hands-on demonstrations from audio engineers and lighting directors, to Q&A sessions with the professionals and artists themselves, the Backstage Pass Experience gives youth a real taste of what it looks and feels like to have a career in the live music industry.
Inherit the Music wants to open the eyes of youth to the diverse and robust array of music careers that exist, empowering youth with all different passions and skills to turn their music aspirations into tangible, achievable career paths.

Kings of Leon Concert Experience
Inherit the Music partnered with Music Will (formerly Little Kids Rock) and Notes for Notes to bring youth from around the country to experience Kings of Leon’s “When You See Yourself” Tour in 2021. Participants went behind the scenes to learn more about careers in the touring industry.
Kings of Leon Cover Exhibition
To elevate the work of aspiring youth musicians, Inherit the Music recently hosted a virtual Kings of Leon Cover Exhibition. Participants aged 13 to 18 from across the country recorded a cover of Kings of Leon songs – and 4 of those bands have been invited to record an original song at a professional recording studio in Nashville, TN!
Inherit the Music is excited to showcase the talent of these four exceptional youth bands and to support them in their musical journey!
