FREE Songwriter Workshop - no previous songwriting or music "know-how" needed.Hosted by Todd Burge
Touring Singer/songwriter
Our goal is to encourage songwriting and performance in the Mid-Ohio Valley.
Everyone is welcome!
You don't have to be a songwriter when you arrive, but you'll likely become one before you leave.
Bring a song, song idea or just your curiosity.
Exercise!!
The "Quick and Dirty" word this month is: LEGACY
With a "complicator" Attempt to put a melodic lift in your song.
Examples
Gypsy by Fleetwood Mac
In Dreams by Roy Orbison
Use this as a jumping-off point and see where it takes you.
The word doesn't have to be in your lyrics.. this is just a place to start.
Try not to spend more than an hour on it. This is an exercise that works the "songwriting muscle".
No pressure.
Made Possible by:
A special gift from Mr. Hunt Brawley
and
The Oakland Foundation
Thank you all!
