“I have taken classes with Grammy-winning songwriters on both coasts and various workshops in Nashville, and this place is, hands down, my favorite.  It is a wonderful place for the absolute beginner to the advanced songwriter.”

- Aliya Hashemi, singer/songwriter, actress, Los Angeles

Aliya has taken THE ROOTS, Songmakers, and is a member of The Songwriter's Workshop.  She is recording her debut record this year with her band, The Gajillionaires (with fellow Songwriting School student Miranda Zeiger).
