ICMP is delighted to announce its latest industry partnership with acoustic guitar manufacturer, Taylor Guitars

The company is well known for its innovative design, manufacturing techniques and instrument quality. 

ICMP students will benefit by having access to these guitars from our Facilities team for practice and recording. 

Ace, Head of Industry Partnerships and Business Development, said: "We’re very proud of our network of industry partners at ICMP and we’re delighted to be working with Taylor Guitars who have provided us with some brilliant acoustic guitars for students to use across both our campuses."

The partnership is extra special as we’re collaborating with our alumnus, Dan Boreham, a recent ICMP graduate and award winning student."

Daniel Boreham, ICMP alumnus and Marketing Manager and Artist Relations at Taylor Guitars, said: "It’s very important that talent is nurtured properly, and with care. ICMP are at the coal face of developing talent, by providing world class tuition and instruments for people to be inspired by, I am glad we get to be small part of this."

In his role at Taylor Guitars, Dan runs artist relations and marketing. He's travelled across Europe as an instrument demonstrator in more than 20 different countries. 

He said: "I wouldn’t be doing what I am now, and be the player I am now without ICMP. I’ve played some of the biggest venues in Europe and worked in some the best studios, and with some of the best people in the business.

I can’t recommend doing a course enough, if you are on the fence, just jump. It’s not all easy, but that’s just about getting better at being better,  you will thank yourself that you pushed through."
