November 2024's ca.mp3 participants
In 2022, local creative champion Jack Vinoy gathered a wealth of his fellow Nashville musicians to debut his fledgling idea: a creative community where questions are encouraged and collaboration trumps competition. Over the course of a weekend, he effectively broke the haze over the post-COVID music industry and initiated the biannual get-together now known as ca.mp3. Eventually, the event migrated from Vinoy’s living room to a local studio. Perks like cheap recording costs, friendly competitions and the simple notion of gaining musical knowledge fuel the fire of creative camaraderie, and spontaneous freestyle cyphers and impromptu dance battles are to be expected.
