Santa Monica High Schooler Win Spot at GRAMMY Camp

A high school student from Santa Monica has been selected to participate in the 17th annual GRAMMY Camp program., operated by the GRAMMY Museum.

Jaq Adelman will be among 81 talented high school students from 67 U.S. cities who will take part in the annual summer camp that will be held virtually from Tuesday, July 20 to Saturday, July 24. Adelman will focus his efforts on the Keyboard Instrument.

All Time Low, Echosmith, and The War and Treaty will be this year's guest artists at the music industry camp for high school students; they will discuss their career paths and help students prepare for the music industry.

The GRAMMY Camp has historically taken place in Los Angeles as a five-day summer music experience. In 2020, it was held virtually and this year, with safety top of mind, it will continue as a virtual interactive experience via digital conferencing. 

"While the program will be a virtual experience again this year, it remains one of the most immersive summer camps for high school students interested in a career in music and continues to give young people the opportunity to study with music industry professionals, resulting in a genuine learning experience about life in the music industry," said Michael Sticka, president of the GRAMMY Museum.

This year's program will feature seven music career tracks: Audio Engineering; Electronic Music Production; Music Business; Music Journalism; Songwriting; Vocal Performance; and Instrumental Performance. All tracks culminate in virtual media projects, recordings, and/or performances.
