My Story
Hey, Brendan here. Music’s been my thing since I was nine - violin, piano, guitar, you name it. Played with Bombay Chamber Orchestra, session work for films, but teaching’s where I really vibe. BAM Academy’s about making music chill for everyone, no pressure. Seen all sorts of folks light up when they finally nail a piece. That’s the magic. It’s not just notes, it’s respect, fun, and a safe spot to mess up and grow.
