You’ll have access to local professional studios throughout your studies. With these opportunities, you can apply the skills you’ve developed in a professional, real-world setting.
If you’re a Performance student, you’ll also get to perform regularly at local professional venues, such as Rough Trade, the Fleece and the Thekla. You might see your favourite artists grace the same stage you play each week in class.
And that’s not all. We also have an excellent selection of bookable resources and specialised equipment that can help you push the boundaries of your musical creation, such as a modular synthesis rig and two vintage tape machines used for experimental composition. Cameras, lights, mics and even green screens are available to book if you’re interested in media and content creation.
Nothing quite beats applying what you’ve learnt in a real-world setting. That’s why we’ve partnered with creative hub Pirate Studios. Here, you’ll have access to 24/7 rehearsal and production spaces that allow for endless practise…and it’s all free of charge.
Initially, Pirate Studios was set up to change the way musicians rehearse. And it’s you that will be bringing the latest music into their chambers. When using the space, you’ll have the chance to use professional equipment, record your sessions and see what life in a real studio is really like.
Specialist studios, incredible equipment and a 65-seater performance venue are just some of the things that make BIMM Music Institute Bristol the place to turn your goals into your dream career in the music industry.
We’ve got multiple teaching rooms – all kitted out with top-spec, professional-quality music equipment of course – plus a library, several tutorial rooms and a common room. And it’s in our common room that you’ll rub shoulders with top musical talent and mix with like-minded souls.
