LHS Graduate Attends GRAMMY Camp
Lawrence County Schools were well represented this summer at the 10th annual GRAMMY Camp program. Nathan Methvin, 2014 graduate of Loretto High School, was one of 167 talented high school students from 31 states that were fortunate enough to attend.
Nathan was selected and attended the camp that was held in Nashville at Belmont University. Other camp locations included New York, Los Angeles, Southern California, and Brooklyn.
Career tracks including songwriting, audio engineering, and music business curriculum were offered with all tracks culminating in media projects, recordings, an open house, and performances.
“The GRAMMY Foundation’s GRAMMY Camp has become our signature program that provides young people with an extraordinarily in-depth experience, giving them a genuine sense of what it’s like to have a career in the music industry,” said Neil Portnow, President/CEO of The Recording Academy and the GRAMMY Foundation.
“Each and every GRAMMY Camper benefits from this program and takes with them valuable lessons learned as they continue their music journeys.”
“Ten years ago, when GRAMMY Camp began, we could not have imagined how this program would have grown and how the students who participate would have thrived from the experience,” said Kristen Madsen, Senior Vice President of the GRAMMY Foundation.
“The program and the campers have exceeded all of our expectations and we are looking forward to what the next decade will bring.”
