Texas State Upward Bound Program

We will keep you guys updated with further information!

Hello all! as the Upward Bound summer program approaches we here have collaborated with our long-time colleague Dr. Travis in the curation of an annual music-driven camp. This year will be the start of our first "Music World Tour"! What this means is we will be working with students, exposing them to the vast and expansive genres of music that exist and are embedded in cultures all over the world. Taking a more international approach, while simultaneously teaching students about the social and political climates that exist within these nations through said music. Also how the realities of individuals influence the expression, curation, and cultures of music! From the UK Grime scene lead by artists such as Skepta & Giggs all the way to South America's Reggaeton movement spearheaded by artists like J Balvin & Daddy Yankee. Strap in and join us as we travel the world on sound!

The first day of class will be June 14th and run untill July 23rd
Tuesdays from 10:00am to 3:00pm.
(Travel and Food will be covered!)
