Thanks for visiting with us!

     The BronzeTone CENTER for Music & History is an intentional academic and cultural organization founded, in 2010, by three Duke University alumni.  Guided by the vision of Dr. Debi Hamlin, our mission is to promote individual transformation through the cultural mediums/technologies of music and history.  Our musicians and vocal artists specialize in song creation, music arrangement, production, performance, and studio recording.

    Our academicians are practitioners of American, African American, and Art History with secondary specialties in historic preservation, museum curating, and exhibition.  By referral only, our clients are individuals who (1) possess exceptional musical gift/talents; (2) are critical thinkers receptive to exploring the historical and social-political uses of their gift/talents/; and (3) are creative beings willing to promote, perform, and distribute their gift/talents in such a way that they inspire an informed and conscious listening audience. We hold regular auditions for aspiring artists 45-65 years young in Los Angeles, California; New York, New York; Baltimore, Maryland; Durham, North Carolina; and Macon, Georgia.

     In addition, we assist individuals and groups by providing affordable entertainment for fundraising and special events. We coordinate/lead Community Conversations on relevant social issues, and sponsor artistic collaboration and music creative projects.  From East to West we have established a reputation for "bringin' the mix."  Our goal is to not only exceed expectations, but absolutely amaze you.  Excellence in all things is the BronzeTone Center's standard because "the way that we do anything is the way that we do everything."

Check us out, enjoy the view, and return regularly for updates and "breaking news." We hope to see you again soon --- The best is yet to come!

Note that each page on our site is accompanied by musical compositions played in their entirety.  We do this in appreciation for the gift;  in profound gratitude for the work; and each artists' unique musical contribution to the world.  Visitors may choose to listen or not via their  volume control.

     En-Joy, and Keep Moving Straight Ahead!

Much Love,
