See all- AI in Music MeetupHOME - Helping Our Music Evolve, Nashville, TN
Artificial intelligence is redefining music. What you do next matters.
Nashville has long been a place where music, storytelling, and innovation thrive. As artificial intelligence begins to shape the tools, workflows, and economics of the music industry, Nashville’s creators have a critical role to play in defining how it unfolds.
The AI in Music Meetup is a monthly forum for artists, producers, engineers, entrepreneurs, and executives who are actively exploring the impact of AI on music creation, collaboration, and career strategy. This is not speculation. This is the next stage of the industry.
Each session is built around real-world application, creative experimentation, and open dialogue. We focus on equipping participants with the context, tools, and relationships they need to stay ahead and stay grounded.
>>> What to expect:
- Live demos of AI tools used in composition, production, and audience growth
- Case studies from Nashville creators already integrating AI into their workflows
- Candid discussions about authorship, intellectual property, and the future of creative labor
- Networking with peers and pioneers shaping the next phase of music and tech
HOME is Nashville’s independent hub for music and innovation. This meetup reflects our commitment to making sure the future of music includes the people who are building it.
Space is limited. Early RSVP is recommended.

- Meet My Music: Virtual Studio HangLink visible for attendees
>> This is where artists show up and get heard.
Meet My Music is a space to share your work, talk about your creative process, and find collaborators who take music seriously.
HOME’s A&R Team listens with intention. They’re looking for Homies to invite into writing rooms and sync-focused sessions. This is your chance to make that connection. This session is open to members and non-members.
Whether you’re a producer, songwriter, artist, or industry rep, you belong here. Every voice adds to the momentum. If you’ve been building something, share it. If you’re between projects, come for the inspiration.
The format is casual. The impact is real.
A note on music share time: We can’t guarantee everyone will have the chance to play a song. Arrive early and have a streaming link ready (no file uploads). If the queue fills up, stay engaged. The insight you gain from hearing others, the feedback exchanged, and the support you show still count. Listening with intention builds community and makes you a better creator.
RSVP, come through, and make your presence count.
Please join this event HERE. Due to protective measures, we've moved these meetups into our HOME community app. Once you click through to join us, you'll be asked to create your FREE Account in the HOME App to join the hang! See you soon!
