Welcome to Fathom!
Whether you’re totally new to music or you’ve been at this for awhile - you’re in the right place. Whatever lights you up about music, we can help you get there.
Don’t worry about sounding perfect. Sound like YOU. 75% of people learn an instrument in their lifetime, but less than 15% continue to play regularly into adulthood. Why is that?? If you learn music, but don’t pursue what you truly LOVE about it, eventually it will feel like too much work. We don’t want that for you!
Our mission is to make sure that your experience with music is FUN — and genuinely supportive and fulfilling for YOU — longterm.
So be WEIRD, be true to you — let’s do it together.
WHAT WE’RE ABOUT
We believe that music should be PLAY.
Life can be hectic, with a million things to be and do. Music is here to support and empower you, and to be something that you look forward to doing. Consistent practice is the key to progress, but without tapping into your own unique motivation to play, and how that connects and nourishes you, you’ll find out that practice alone cannot unlock the door to musical unfoldment.
Our curriculum combines the development and practice of solid technical skills — balanced with student led exploration of musical styles and song choices. We dive fully into following where your natural creative drive takes you, fostering a deep personal connection with artists, genres, and music history. It's not just about playing or enjoying music, it's about understanding YOUR UNIQUE WHY, and using that awareness to supercharge your journey with sound.
To fathom is to flourish.
Meet Your Teachers
JOSH HARRIS
FOUNDER, LEAD EDUCATOR
Josh has been teaching and playing professionally for nearly 25 years. Studying Jazz Performance at Mohawk College lay his foundation for a successful career - He has performed regularly, toured and recorded with diverse and respected bands, and has done what many find too trying to persevere - to make music not only his life, but his livelihood. His students benefit not only from his level of experience and dedication to his craft, but also from his friendly supportive nature, which has a knack for calming nerves and putting students at ease.
ANGIE SEITZ
FOUNDER, EVENT FACILITATOR
Angie’s path with music has been a winding one. After studying 3 years towards her BA in Jazz Performance at The Royal Conservatory of The Hague, NL, and performing in Canada, the US, and across Europe - she dropped out to work, travel, and begin a deeply transformative inner journey - one that has led her back home to her relationship with sound and music time and time again. The laundry list of tools, modalities and experiences she has gathered along the way - Meditation, Reiki, Somatics and Human Design to name a few - greatly inform and enrich the group events she now hosts.
OUR VISION
Playing music is our favorite thing, and sharing it with others is our dream. Seeing you progress one note at a time, and watching your confidence grow right along with it is — THE BEST THING EVER. This is what it’s all about for us. With your dreams clearly in our sights, our mission as your teachers is to support and empower you to achieve them.
If you can’t yet fathom the idea that within you, an incredible musician is waiting to be set free - hey, that’s okay, we believe it for you! In fact, we KNOW it to be true. So if you’re ready to embark on the journey of a lifetime, with music as your vehicle and guide — BUCKLE UP. There is work to be done and much joy to be experienced along the way — today is always the perfect day to begin.
So fathomers, keep your eyes on the sky and your feet on the ground..
Let’s do this!
Chat soon rockers, 😎🤘🏻🎶
