Year on year, AmaGroove unites artists across borders in a professional, intentional, and creatively aligned way. The residency’s momentum comes from its diversity — the openness, stories, and honesty each artist brings into the space.
Expect writing sessions that stretch your creativity, conversations that widen your perspective, and moments that remind you why you chose this path in the first place. Throughout the week, you’ll explore and learn from the power of co-writing, take part in listening sessions, and join exclusive events with industry peers and partners — offering direct, honest feedback and new connections for the journey ahead.

Creativity, Culture & Well-being
Great music begins with the freedom to express yourself and the support to do it honestly. At AmaGroove, we centre artistic integrity, and mental well-being — and this year we’ll continue placing a strong emphasis on fostering cultural understanding and mental health awareness within the global music landscape.
Growth
The residency gives artists space to grow in unconventional ways, offering an open, encouraging environment where collaboration supports both personal and artistic development. Our human-centred approach empowers you to push your creativity, explore new genres, and help shape the future of music.
Tools
As an artist, you will dive deep into your own cultural identity while also learning how to respectfully draw inspiration from other traditions. You’ll gain valuable tools to navigate the complexities of the music industry, while also opening doors to unexplored creative and professional opportunities.
Community
Community lies at the core of AmaGroove. Artists, mentors, and industry professionals will come together to transcend boundaries, create magic, and form a lasting network. Together, we’ll build meaningful experiences and connections that will continue to inspire long after the last song is produced.
