This is about YOU.
                Your WRITING.
                         Your SONGS.

The Songwriting School of Los Angeles is devoted to helping you write your best songs.

Whether you hope to write "hit" songs or not, we believe the truest ones, the ones that tap into something uniquely you, are the ones that hit home. 

With a diverse curriculum, world-class teachers, and a positive & supportive creative environment, The Songwriting School can help you learn to write the songs that matter.

How we do it

• We get to know you.
  As a person, an artist, a wordsmith, a creator.  We help you cultivate, articulate, and develop your uniqueness.  We guide you in choosing classes to fill in knowledge gaps, build skills, and inspire you.

• We guide you
  With classes, workshops, lessons, events, mentoring, and more, we bridge the gaps between your creative potential and your ability to write the songs you want the world to hear. We create opportunities for you to meet and learn from industry professionals and help you make good decisions about your music's place in an ever-changing industry.

• We keep it fun, seriously.
  We are serious about songwriting. And we seriously think it should be a labor of love. In all we do, we strive to maintain the role of joy, pleasure ... magic in the creative process--even when what we do may be called "work."  We value mystery and mastery equally and seek each, daily. 

• We know what we're doing.
  Our teachers are all working professionals--from Grammy winners to #1 hit writers to film/tv placement regulars to indie artists.  We take teaching the art and business as seriously and passionately as we take the art and business of songwriting itself.
