About Songbirds

Songbirds is a creative education powerhouse equipping the next generation of artists, makers, and innovators with the skills to thrive in today’s creative economy. Born from the merger of Songbirds and Dynamo Studios, we bring together classrooms, studios, and stages to form an integrated pathway for learning, mentorship, and professional growth.

Every learner has the potential to turn creativity into opportunity. Whether in elementary school writing a song for the first time, a high school student recording in a professional studio, or an emerging artist stepping onto the stage, we provide the training, tools, and connections to make it happen.

John Dooley

Executive Director

Songbirds is a multi platform model, from in school programs to studio labs to live performance venues, paired with industry mentorship and hands on learning. By linking education directly to real world experiences, we help students develop not only technical and artistic skills, but also the confidence, leadership, and collaboration needed to succeed.

Our work goes beyond the arts. By preparing students for careers in media, production, entrepreneurship, and performance, we contribute to workforce development and expand economic mobility across the Southeast. We are proud to call Chattanooga our home base, a city where the creative economy is growing and new voices are finding their place.

Songbirds is more than an organization. It is a movement of educators, artists, funders, and students who believe creativity can transform lives and communities.
