Meet MYLES KENNEDY
FS Foundation Ambassador
Ever since I was a child, music has been like oxygen to me. Fortunately, I had parents that recognized my passion and did their best to provide the necessary means and encouragement to nurture my desire to play an instrument. Even though it might not have always been in the family budget, somehow they made it work. In retrospect, this makes me appreciate their sacrifice even more.
That said, I realize there are plenty of people out there who might not be in the same position. This became part of the inspiration to try and find a way to ensure that individuals who had the same desire I had could also experience this incredible medium.
So in 2015, The Future Song Foundation was born. A nonprofit 501c3 that provides musical instruments, mentorship, and opportunities for children, teens, and people with limited access to resources.
I’ve experienced some incredible things over the course of my career, but without a doubt, being part of this organization and seeing what it’s evolved into has been the best part of the journey. I look forward to many more years of serving the community and continuing with the mission we set out on years ago to transform lives through the power of music.
