My Voice Music (MVM) is a nonprofit music organization based in SE Portland that empowers youth to share their stories and express themselves through music. Operating from a pay-what-you-can music center and recording studio, MVM provides a creative and supportive space where young artists grow, collaborate, and take the stage. Each year at Pickathon, MVM curates a special showcase that highlights emerging talent from their programs, offering festivalgoers a glimpse into the next generation of Portland’s music scene.
This year’s showcase features performances by students from MVM’s AMPLIFY High School and Transitions programs: Kai Wickham, V Valentine, Ingrid Christensen and Ozzy Goetz.
