What We Do

Autism Open Mics

Band Together Pittsburgh has created an opportunity for those on the spectrum to create and perform music.

From family friendly open stages, to mentorship and support, BTP wants every individual to realize the joy of musical expression regardless of talent or skill level.

Spectrum Talent Search

We are so pleased to announce that we will be launching a brand new music program… called, “Spectrum Talent Search”.

Basically this will be an “American Idol” type of production, only in our case, everyone participates and everyone is a winner!

Professional DJ Music

Band Together Pittsburgh is thrilled to offer professionally trained DJs for your parties and events. Our talent pool of individuals on the Autism Spectrum continues to grow and continues to “Wow” us with their talents.

Like our performers, we support our DJs through training, equipment, securing gigs and transportation and support at events.

Drum Circles

BTP Drum Circles are named after our dear friend and original Wild Cherry (Play That Funky Music White Boy) drummer Ron Beitle.

They are a great way for those on the spectrum to relax have fun, and develop interpersonal skills in a family friendly, inclusive environment.

Drum Circles are also therapeutic for anxiety.

Testimonials

Issac is a different kid because of your program. It gives him an outlet he never had before. Thank you.

Our family is honored to be a part of the Band Together Family. It has been life-changing for our son.
Thank you to John Vento, Ronny 'Moondog' Esser, and all the others who have helped to make life changing miracles for our families. You can't meet these two men and not see how special they are. Love Band Together Pittsburgh.

Hello John and Moondog. We sat around the tv and watched the YouTube telecast of the virtual event. Wow!! What an awesome way to cap off this beautiful day!! Thank you so much for doing this and allowing Zayne to participate. We enjoyed the incredible young people you have assembled to express their musical talents. God bless you and your loved ones through this crazy year with hopes of reuniting in 2021.
With much love,
