Songwriting Workshop - From Flash to Finish: Songwriting with Lynn Miles

Join Songwriting Royalty Juno Award winner and 6 x Canadian Folk Music Award winner, Lynn Miles for an insight into her craft. Flashes of inspiration are rare, mysterious, fleeting and sacred. Well talk about how to encourage these lightning bolts to arrive more often, how to capture them, and how to use them to bring a song into the world. My favourite way of songwriting is to write from the title. I do this by grabbing the gift of the lightning bolt and using it as my starting point for the rest of the song. Once the lighting stops, the real journey beginsWell talk about power structures in rhyming patterns, verses, bridges, and choruses.

NOTE: This takes place at a different location from the Rocky Mountain Listening Room Concerts.
