The Beat of Life is an innovative, steadily growing music-based non-profit in the resource booming Music City of Nashville, TN!

Our vision at The Beat of Life is to provide therapeutic songwriting and music programs to Nashville’s most vulnerable, challenged, and hurting populations. We accomplish this mission through a bringing together and utilizing of all the talent and resources we have right here in this awesome city of Nashville.

Our tagline is “Music Can Save A Life”… because we believe music is so much more than just an incredible form of entertainment, but that music also has the ability to profoundly transform and even potentially save lives. We are therefore tackling some of the most critical social issues of our times through the power of music.

The concept is basically using Nashville’s greatest asset and resource – music – to not just churn out more entertainment and hits, but to now serve our community in a powerful way. It’s the merging of our music community and industry with our human and social services sector. When you bring those two worlds together, it’s incredible what can happen.

TBOL's four pilot programs are:

"Redemption Songs" - serving the prison population

"Beautiful Minds" - serving those battling depression, mental illness, and suicide

"Sing it to Stop It: Anti-Bullying Through Songwriting" - serving junior high schools as a bully-prevention program

"Songwriters for Soldiers" - serving veterans/soldiers battling PTSD

So we decided one of the best ways to tell our story is to highlight one soul at a time throughout the year...

And so, each month we will highlight one story of one person who has been through one of our programs. (Which means you can return each month for a new story and new face.)
