ABOUT US
About the founder
Musical Intervention (MI) is the brainchild of Adam Christoferson. Using his challenging experiences in life to motivate a healing movement though the arts, Musical Intervention was born. Through his work in inpatient-psychiatric hospitals, addiction treatment programs and school systems, Adam saw the need for people to connect with a broader community in a safe and productive way.
The dream (MI Studios) was realized 15 years after its conception. It had provided a safe haven and sober creative-collaborative space two hundreds of incredibly diverse people. He has presented at international symposiums, A TedX Talk and continues to consult with agencies around the world on this beautiful and inclusive program….
Spoiler Alert: Adam is writing a book and for more updates stay tuned with us.

ITS ABOUT VALUES...
Contribution
We believe that every single person has something unique and valuable to contribute to others and that it is in this act of service that we find our highest calling and can have a lasting impact on our communities and world
Empathy
Defined as “the ability to share someone else’s feelings, experiences and emotions by imagining what it would be like to be in that person’s situation,” we believe that the key to effectively tackling the biggest challenges we face on an individual, interpersonal, community, and global level is to intentionally learn and practice the lost Art of empathy.
Dignity
We believe that every person is worthy of honor, love and connection with no other conditions but that they are human beings with inherent dignity..
Self-expression
We believe that creating art helps fulfill the human need to be seen and understood and serves as a starting point for people to bring their highest aspirations for themselves and their lives into real time and space.
Given a context of freedom to try and fail, with the expectation of creating original content, people will not only hone their ability to say, “this is who i am and this is what is important to me”, but they may find it easier to translate that into action in other parts of their lives.
Quality
We Strive for the highest level of quality in everything we do, from how we treat people and our partner organizations, to how we approach songwriting, music production, live performances and of course, the quality of the music itself.
