Notes:

(1) Songwriting Workshops - Attendees meet in small workgroups with the songwriting staff to discuss the craft of songwriting and to get feedback on their songs.

(2) Free Writing Time - Attendees use this time to revise existing songs or write new songs based on what was learned in the Songwriting Workshops. Many attendees also use this time to collaborate with other attendees on new or existing songs.

(3) One-on-One Consultations - Attendees meet on a sign-up basis face-to-face in 15 minute sessions with our Producers, A&R Executives, and other Music Industry Executives for personalized career advice and feedback on their songs.

(4) Informational Workshops - A number of workshops will be offered to cover a variety of topics such as melody writing, lyric writing, slack key guitar instruction, recording basics, live performance do’s & don’ts, and others.
