Music Director, Darren Rose, is set to host and talk to
Nikki about Mötley Crüe, Sixx:A.M., his photography and his continuous efforts to mentor and encourage today's emerging musicians and artists. On participating in the series, Sixx said, "I'm excited to share my experience at the Musicians Institute. Anytime one artist can pass the baton of information on to another artist, it's a great thing." The conversation will be followed by a Q&A session with the MI Students, and the public is invited to watch a live stream of the event at www.facebook.com/mihollywood.
"This is going to be an excellent opportunity for our students," says Roy Walker,
Director of Marketing for Musicians Institute. "Nikki has a lot of wisdom to share with them, many of whom are pursuing careers as full-time working musicians. We hope his conversation and Q&A with our students will inspire them, but also help to make them more knowledgeable about the realities of a career in music." When asked about supporting the event, Program
Director for 98-7FM,
