SONGMAKERS is a class exclusively for graduates of THE ROOTS songwriting program. The class strikes a vital balance between providing an ongoing curriculum of growth for the writers and weekly workshopping opportunities to gain feedback on songs and songs-in-progress. Exercises range from idea-generation to lyric development, from hook-writing to song structure analysis, from speed-based drills to ongoing projects, all in the spirit of helping each writer cultivate and refine a unique writerly voice and keep making songs.

Classes: Classes, FALL 2018 CLASSES, FEATURED CLASSES, FEATURED CLASSES / NEXT TO START, Songwriting

Class Type: Unknown Type

Members of the class typically range from full-time singer/songwriters to aspiring writers to points in between. What they have in common: the shared knowledge, vocabulary, and skills of THE ROOTS, a passion for their unique art, and a mutual respect for one another and the creation of songs that matter.

Eligibility: Exclusively for graduates of THE ROOTS songwriting program. If you are interested in Songmakers and have not taken THE ROOTS, there are Tuesday evening or Saturday afternoon sections most seasons, with a 2-week Roots Intensive in the Summer and at various times in the year. We welcome you once you have graduated from THE ROOTS!

When: This course meets Saturdays, ongoing, 10:30am-1:15pm. An eligible songwriter can join at any time. Special this Summer: a second section on Tuesday nights, 7:30-10:30pm

SPECIAL: Do a Summer/Fall Combo (19 Meetings!) and take $100 more off the tuition AND get a free one-hour private song doctor session with the instructor.

Here's how that relates to you:
- For a New Songmaker, that's $450 for Summer, $350 for Fall (tuition goes down 100 when you repeat/return= $800 , minus $100 more = $700 + private 1 hr session ($150 value).
- For a Repeating Songmaker, that's $350 for Summer, $350 for Fall, and $100 off = $600 + private 1 hr session ($150 value).

You are guaranteed 8-weeks in a season, and the calendar frequently allows more. For Summer 2019, for instance, there are EIGHT sessions 7/6 - 8/24 and for FALL there are ELEVEN sessions (woot woot!), 9/28 - 12/14 (no class the Saturday of Thanksgiving week).
Your first round tuition is $450, and you get all the meetings in the given time period.
Some students take the class for a single season, some as often as their needs dictate, and some remain in class every semester for a consistent opportunity to receive feedback, assignments, accountability, collaboration, perspective, and support.
This class is aimed at YOUR personal, creative, and professional goals and gives each student a personalized experience.
This is not a class with a "class A to class Z" curriculum; thus it is possible to start at any point in the year.
