Songwriting is a rewarding form of expression. These classes help bring this artistic expression to fruition. Expect weekly writing assignments that focus on specific elements of songwriting: form, chords, melody, rhythm and / or lyrics. Students play what they’ve worked on each week and we talk about the process and what parts of the song are most effective. A friendly, casual and inspiring atmosphere with generally excellent writing and input from a very talented and growing community of songwriters. A great way to generate new material for writers at any level. The deadlines really help!
