Encinitas Student Accepted Into Grammy Camp

ENCINITAS, CA — An Encinitas music student is headed to Grammy Camp.

Ty Morgan, a student at The Grauer School, an independent school in Encinitas, was selected for the 21st annual Grammy Camp for guitar performance. He was among more than 80 high school students from across the country accepted into the highly selective program.

"It's an honor to be selected by the Grammy Camp," Ty told Patch. "I owe a lot to Grauer Music teachers Isaac Langen and Tom Hopper, and Casey Trask at the School of Rock Encinitas for their support and guidance all these years."

Morgan is part of The Grauer School's Advanced Music class and performed at this year's The Grauer School of Rock Gala in support of the Visual and Performing Arts.

Outside of school, Morgan is the drummer of the local band, Kook, a punk, grunge and hard rock band formed in 2024 in San Diego. The band also includes fellow Grauer student and bassist, Julien Wilson, and lead guitarist and singer, Hudson Goldstein. In the last few weeks, Kook performed at Humble Heart in Ocean Beach, the Cool Beans Supply Co. in San Marcos and Soma San Diego.
