Songwriting Camp

Camp Description

Through this special 5-day songwriting camp, students will learn how to write their own songs! Students will analyze some of the greatest compositions of the last 60 years in order to develop their own tunes. They will learn about chord progressions, arrangements and other tricks of the trade. We’ll spend Monday through Friday learning and writing songs, all culminating in a live performance. This music camp is great for students 12-18 years old who have had previous instruction.

WEEKLY SCHEDULE

• Camp runs Monday - Friday, 9am - 4pm each day.
• Each day focuses on creativity and collaboration, guiding students through lyric writing, chord progressions, and song structure while exploring what makes great songs timeless.
• By Friday, campers will have an opportunity to perform their original songs, highlighting the creative work they’ve developed and perfected during the week!
