Hi, everyone! Derek Fawcett and Ethan Hein here. We’re pretty different from one another. Derek was born and raised in Michigan, then “adult-ed” in Chicago until the wind blew him to Hell’s Kitchen. Ethan’s a lifelong Brooklynite. Derek toured the country and beyond as a singer/songwriter. Ethan gigged in New York as a multi-instrumentalist and produced, composed and arranged for theater and film. Derek teaches singing and songwriting; Ethan teaches music theory. What we have in common is a love of music, the process of making music, and building community around both.
Making music isn’t easy. Sure, it offers a joy that can sustain your entire life, but dedicating years to building your skills is slow, and it can feel lonely. Many musicians yearn for a place where they can learn, share, get feedback, and feel like they’re part of a community in the process: Like college, but with only one class that’s all about making music.
Great communities are groups of people who share things in common and have an outlet to express the things that make them uniquely them. Tuniversity is for anyone who is serious about building community through studying music-making: Consider yourself invited.
Musically,
Derek & Ethan
