$Song\/Craft Songwriting Workshop with mentor Blair Packham$

Play your songs and get songwriting feedback from an industry expert
About this Event

In the Song/Craft Songwriting Workshop, participants share their songs and get feedback from a songwriting expert.

Participants should prepare two songs to share. Every participant will be able to share one song and get feedback. If time allows, participants will be able to share a second one.

The feedback will be honest, kind, and focus on next steps.

A keyboard (Korg SV-66) will be provided and participants are welcome to bring their own handheld instruments or play a recording of their song.

Auditors are welcome, but will not be able to share songs and receive feedback.

In the 1980s, Blair Packham was lead vocalist/guitarist for The Jitters, who enjoyed three Top Twenty singles in Canada and toured relentlessly. Blair has since released four albums as a solo artist, placing songs in countless TV shows and films like Dawson’s Creek, Hollywood North, Stay, and many more.
