Every great song starts somewhere.
Songwriting Foundations is an application-based Focus Retreat for emerging songwriters. Unlike our larger eXperience, this intentionally small gathering offers personalized time to develop your craft. Hands-on learning, guided writing sessions, mentorship, and feedback help you build a foundation and gain experience in real writing rooms.
Songwriting Foundations is designed for those in the beginning phases of their songwriting journey and want personalized time to receive foundational information, learn to collaborate, and gain experience in real writing rooms.
