Songwriters Weekend Workshop

Join us for two exciting days exploring the Theory and Practice of writing music. The October 11-12 session is for complete beginners and intermediate songwriters with some experience.

On the first day we will cover I-IV-V progressions, Major and Minor Keys, Inversions, Sevenths, and Arranging. See, Hear, Interact, and Learn in a holistic and fun way!

On the second day you will compose your own chord progressions and melodies with tried and true methods that have been used by musicians for generations. Learn about voice leading, and hear it bring your music to life! Optional, but encouraged: bring in your own music to the "songwriters lab" for help with developing your sound.
