Songwriting as Truth-Telling
Dedicated to each writer developing their own voice and sharing their unique perspective.
We'll write, share and listen to songs and explore songwriting as human communication and connection.
Each participant shares a song each week. Newly-written songs, older songs, fragments, poems, and songs by someone else are equally welcome.
We'll listen generously and appreciatively to create an inspiring, critique-free space in which to deepen songwriting practice. Songwriters of all levels of experience welcome.
6-week Online Classes:
- Tuesdays 4-6 pm, Sept 9 - Oct 14
- Tuesdays 7-9 pm, Sept 9 - Oct 14
All times Pacific. Space limited to 9 participants per class. $180.
