“I was fortunate to have Tom as my instructor at AIM. He possesses both the knowledge and, most importantly, the experience to understand what it takes to be successful in the music business.
One moment I will never forget is when I performed in class. Afterward, he complimented my pocket and feel, emphasizing their importance for a musician.
To this day, I continue to focus on that advice. Thank you, Tom! ”

“I was blessed with the opportunity to study intensely with Mr. Tom Knight for a full year. His knowledge of music as well as the music business is second to none.
Tom taught me important lessons that I still use to this day in the studio, on the stage, at the negotiating table, on the tour bus, and also at the bank!
Studying with Tom will definitely equip you with all of the necessary tools to make it in this industry as a musician, and in Life in general!”

"I just want to give a huge, huge shout out to my guy—my teacher—Tom Knight.
I wouldn't have been able to learn click or be able to play shows locked to a metronome if it wasn't for Tom. He was one of my hardest teachers, always gave advice anytime I came into the room.
I just want to gave a huge shout out and thank you to Tom Knight—the legend. Thank you, man!"
