MORE INFO ABOUT SESSIONS LA + SAVE SESSIONS:
SESSIONS LA is a music writing, production, recording, & DJ program for youth and young adults in Los Angeles. Our mission is to promote youth development and nurture critical thinking through unique music education programming developed by a group of experienced DJs, Producers, and Music Educators. For more info on the program, visit our website: www.sessionsla.com
Due to the recession and acts of nature beyond our control, we have no more funding to continue the amazing work that we offer to the Los Angeles youth. Therefore we have launched the SAVE SESSIONS fundraising campaign so that YOU, the community, can help us survive through this drought while we continue to search for philanthropic support. You can donate online via our IndieGoGo: www.indiegogo.com/savesessions OR come to this concert!

If you’re not convinced, listen to the latest album the youth have made: Bad Man’s World.
BAD MAN’S WORLD is the 2011 album written, produced, & recorded by the SESSIONS LA youth participants. The music sheds light on the realities of life for a young person growing up in a Post-9/11 + Recession plagued Los Angeles.
