Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion Statement

At Songbirds, we recognize that one of the greatest benefits of music is its ability to link unlike minds, break barriers, understand outside cultures, and forge relationships between different groups of people. We are committed to celebrating and embracing our different backgrounds, and we believe these differences create stronger people, experiences, and community. We are an Equal Opportunity Employer and do not discriminate against any employee or applicant for employment because of race, color, sex, age, national origin, religion, sexual orientation, gender identity and/or expression, status as a veteran, and basis of disability or any other federal, state or local protected class.

Our Teaching Partners

We are partnered with over a hundred schools and institutions across the southeast. We love our teachers, but not all of them have the time to send us a headshot. Here are just a few of our guitar-teaching baddies that also provided a selfie. If you’d like to see our full list of partners click here.
