Dreamt into life; The Inaugural Southern California Artist Showcase

In less than 1 year since moving the MyTown vision with me to California, it really happened... and I still can't even believe it. 


Set on the prestigious and historic oceanfront venue, the Long Beach Museum of Art, 14 student artist performers ranging in age from 5-20 along side some if the best professionals from the music industry like Shoshana Bean (lead role in "Wicked"), Mat Devine (frontman & singer/songwriter of "Kill Hannah") and Julia Price (up and coming LA singer/songwriter). 

Since I first setup shop here in Long Beach before I even met my first student client, not only was this showcase a dream come true, but even down to the exact location where I had envisioned my "future" students and colleagues coming together at a space so picturesque and gorgeous. The joy on each young artist's face all celebrated by friends, family, and one another... couldn't put a price tag on moments so magical. I couldn't have asked for a better opportunity to show Southern California what the essence of MyTown is truly all about. 

And the best part, this was only just the beginning...

  1. About Corey Ferrugia...
    I honestly don't why I am writing this as it is so obvious but with the complete lack of self awareness someone needs to speak the truth to you Corey or should I call you Magical Mystery Mentally ill CoRey. I actually hope your curiosity leads you to wellness but right now you're a security guard, cannabis smokin bum that would be living on the streets or back living in Arizona with your mom if it wasn't for your wife or sugar momma. Less is more... your content on your channel and soundcloud is a literal pu pu platter of trash and don't get me started with the instagram emojis... It's all a load of hoarding, tasteless nonsense from a never has been narcissist. I can't even go on and claim that you are washed up because you never were in the first place. It may be hard to come to terms but you're too old to be a popstar and not talented enough to be a breakout singer/musician. The amount of autotune is embarrassing but obviously needed from your live and your proposal video. Claiming to be "awake" when in fact you've lost all grounding. Who would look up to you? Seriously, look back a few years back it's been a downward spiral. Now you're recording private conversations without the others knowing then posting it is not cool. Basic common sense. Trying to wheel and deal and secretly profit and offer people blogs for huff post I KNOW and guarantee you Arianna Huffington would NOT be cool with. You'd be blacklisted. Your TEDtalk was a self serving joke of a presentation. In the past charging people 250 an hour for "artist development" when yet you have no development yourself. It's sad but obvious people caught on as the clients dried up. Your self claimed "magic" is deception and delusion which will probably lead to the third "d" divorce. It's all smoke and mirrors. You can go on iTunes and the only fan review for your biggest song "Paradise" is your wife. I can literally go on and on but that pretty much explains it all and is ironic as anyone can see "trouble in paradise" coming soon...
