Testimonials
“Working with Mike Mangini and all of the mastermind coaches has put me in such a happy and determined mindset with my music. I definitely could not have achieved this on my own, and I honestly don’t think I could make this music thing a career without them.
During the grad program with Mike, it was so remarkably helpful to hear what he had to say about my music. What I love most about working with him is that immediately after the masterclasses, I would feel so inspired by what he had to say that I would dive right back into my own project. Mike’s ideas were fresh in my head, and I just wanted to make one of my best songs yet.
The improvements I have seen in myself through the grad program and since then is almost unbelievable. The motivation, inspiration, and honestly pressure I experienced with Mike and the program has 100% made me a better musician.
I would like to say thank you for everything. I would not have this confidence in my future and in my music without Mike and all of the mastermind coaches.
Cheers to you all.” -Julia Johnson
