The AS220 Youth Delgado Studio is dedicated to helping young people create, perform and promote their own music Weekly classes are the foundation of our program and allow us to learn together, grow and cultivate our craft as a team. Classes are the most basic level of engagement within Performance and get students ready to work in the Delgado, our recording studio.

Music recorded in the Delgado is a direct reflection of how each artist uniquely views the world around them. We challenge our artists to think outside of the commercial box made by money, mass media, and big time record executives.

After artists create and record their work, they are given opportunities to perform at local shows, gallery openings and in-house events. Artists who can commit to a collaborative group can join either of our performance troupes,  ZuKrewe and 2Legit.

Every other month, we offer Zuology, an all-ages Hip Hop Show. Anyone can sign up for a 5-minute slot on stage, and then it’s on! Emcees try to conquer the crowd with their flow and face off in freestyle cyphers. Breakers, hiphop dancers, and live beatmaking demos are also in effect.

NEW ALBUM: 
More Than Music by Nicholas David https://music.apple.com/us/album/more-than-music/1830567389


Nicholas David is a vibrant, dynamic and multi-talented singer/songwriter from Saint Paul, MN. For more than a decade, Nicholas has composed alternative soul music that connects with people worldwide on a deeply human level. Prior to his unforgettable 2012 run with Team CeeLo on NBC’s The Voice, Nicholas had already recorded five critically acclaimed albums, experienced national radio airplay and participated in multiple charity and collaborative projects. Fans of The Voice were introduced to his soulful and storied career during this time where he struck a chord with America and finished a fan favorite in the top three.

Nicholas’ music is a fully integrative experience, incorporating multiple genres and influences ranging everywhere from Prince to Beethoven. His powerful voice, enriching lyrics and liquid piano playing set him apart and are the reason Skope Magazine calls him “an authentic artist of this millennium.” His captivating melodies embody an unbridled passion for music, and his lyrics convey the thoughts of a truly humble, intelligent and genuine human being. When it comes to his iconic live shows, Nicholas is a one-of-a-kind and must-see act. As if channeling inspiration from an outside source, the instant he walks on stage he gives himself over to the music. Fans have even gone as far to speak of his performances as a spiritual service that they actually want to attend. His emotional approach to songwriting and performing is the very reason the thriving Twin Cities music scene affectionately nicknamed him ‘the feelin.’
