WAM classes have gone virtual!

Hi Sdc, Wow, what a crazy time. Like everyone, WAM is adapting to the unprecedented changes that the world is experiencing right now. We are working from home. We are practicing social distancing. We are doing our best to manage uncertainty with grace. Our hearts go out to everyone who has been affected by this crisis, especially to all of the audio professionals, sound engineers, producers, artists, and workers who have been affected. We see you! And we are here for you! During this time of social distancing, we are launching #WAMeverywhere to bring important workshops, trainings, and networking events to women, girls, and gender non-conforming folks everywhere who are passionate about sound (scroll down for more)! If you can, please donate now to help sustain this work. No matter what happens, we remain intensely committed to our mission, our students, and to you, our WAM community.

We've extended the application deadline to April 10, to give everyone a little more time to take advantage of this incredible training opportunity. For emerging professionals in the field, the WAM Internship Program is truly an opportunity like none other. From past intern Katie, "Internship for WAM introduced me to many opportunities in the world of audio engineering. I am so grateful for the professional experience and new connections! Learning from other women in a creative, encouraging, and non-competitive environment was priceless and truly empowering. Visiting Dolby Labs and Meyer Sound Laboratories, shadowing female audio engineers during live mixing for Hamilton, and assisting with recording of podcasts at the WAM studio was a nice addition to studying audio at school. A new generation of women in audio is coming up: world, get ready!" Apply Here Open House gathering last month at the WAM Studio.

“Thermal And a Quarter is on the vanguard of the Indian Rock Scene” – NPR (All Things Considered), USA

Thermal And A Quarter (TAAQ) is an English Rock Band from Bangalore, India.

We’ve been around the block. Released eight studio albums. Toured across New York, Seattle, London, Edinburgh, Dublin, Bonn, Dubai, Hong Kong, Singapore, Kathmandu and more. Opened for marquee names including Guns N’ Roses, Deep Purple, Jethro Tull and Slash. Been on the cover of Rolling Stone Magazine. Won national / international awards. All great, but not what makes us who and what we are.

When we began writing music 24 years ago, Bangalore was a sleepy pensioner’s paradise with a decided colonial hangover. We grew up convent-educated, thinking in English, and grappling with an emerging ‘modern urban Indian’ identity. Bangalore is now the upstart tech-capital of India, one of the back-offices of the world, and exploding with innovation, nouveau riche, traffic and urban sprawl.

You’ll find all of that in our music. It’s overtly ‘Western’ – guitar, bass, drums, English lyrics (no Bollywood, sitars or tablas here) – but nested in that shell is a complex, multi-layered and nuanced experience: where Emily Dickinson meets Tagore, Phish meets The Mahavishnu Orchestra and Steely Dan goes out for a curry.

We sometimes call ourselves the ‘bastards of the world’. It’s quite an interesting space to be in. Rooted, yet un-belonging, everywhere and nowhere.

Like the name, it all looks a bit complicated, so let’s make it simple: listen to the music.
