The past year has been a whirlwind at Abbey Road Institute, as our specialist music production school goes from strength to strength. The diploma programme has an ever-expanding roster of guest lecturers and recording sessions as well as a developing curriculum. Here are just a couple of highlights from the past few months.

Students were invited to be part of a recording session, during which Jerry and team worked on some soon to be released tracks. The musicians and producer also shared insightful words of wisdom and advice from their personal experiences in the industry, from the importance of being humble to how to handle rejection.
