SoundWave Scholarship Program
The SoundWave Scholarship offers an opportunity for young songwriters in Kitsap County, ages 14-18, to record their original music at Brickyard Studio (Bainbridge Island, WA) with onsite engineer and studio owner Johnny Bregar. Recipients will also be guided through a mentorship program with internationally celebrated local singer, songwriter, and multi-instrumentalist Lydia Ramsey to refine their songs’ artistic and technical elements and produce “studio-ready” material. Applications are due by April 1, 2025.
