SUMMARY:Comox Valley Songwriters Circle
DESCRIPTION:Ashley Sykes is a singer/songwriter who has enjoyed being part of the Comox Valley songwriter circles since they began in 2005.   She’s been happily hosting them since Fall of 2022.   The circles are a place for both new and experienced songwriters to come share new songs they are working on\, or to dust off some old ones that may need some practice.  We take turns going around the circle sharing one song at a time\,  and each artist can decide if they want others to jam or singalong to their tune. \nAshley is happy to collaborate with Kristina Campbell\, owner of the Artful Gallery\, to welcome songwriters to a cozy and inspiring atmosphere where we will be surrounded by visual art as we share our musical art.
