Come learn from the people who made – and continue to make – the Muscle Shoals Sound the phenomenon it is. You will take classes from the music makers, hear their stories in panel discussions, perform on the stage where so many of them have made music, and visit the studios where the magic began – FAME Studios and Muscle Shoals Sound.

The Story Behind the Muscle Shoals Sound!
Campers will also learn about the history of music in Muscle Shoals, touring the Alabama Music Hall of Fame, as well as the studios themselves. Hearing stories from the musicians, songwriters, and engineers themselves is also part of the experience!
