Wyoming Independent Music Initiative

Supporting Wyoming musicians. Strengthening our music communities.

The Wyoming Independent Music Initiative (WIMI) is a program of the Wyoming Arts Council dedicated to supporting independent musicians and strengthening Wyoming’s music scene.

Established in 2016, WIMI began as an effort to provide musicians with professional development opportunities, support venues that present live music, and increase awareness of the value of a thriving independent music community.

Today, WIMI continues that work through music discovery programs, performance opportunities, professional resources, and partnerships that connect Wyoming musicians with audiences both within and beyond the state.

From curated playlists and live performances to regional festival showcases and special projects, WIMI celebrates the music being created in Wyoming while helping artists build connections, reach new audiences, and develop their careers.
