SUMMARY:Summer Ramble Songwriter Workshop
DESCRIPTION:Two days of songwriting\, co-writing\, and craft — small group\, all levels welcome. \nDay One starts with the fundamentals: what makes a song a song\, where ideas come from\, and how to get something started. You’ll write\, share\, and spend the afternoon in a deeper session with J. Plank and Lindi Ortega — foundations track or craft and story track\, depending on where you’re at. \nDay Two brings the songs to life. Many if not all participants will get to work through their song with a live band (we’ll do our best to get to everyone!) — The One Spot Ramblers — and if something special happens\, there may be an invitation to perform at the Friday night Ramble Fest show. \nBring your notebook\, your instrument if you have one\, and your ears. Just show up with an open mind\, ready to create!
