Songwriter Workshop & In-Concert Performance

(CDT, UTC-05) (CDT, UTC-05)

The Barn @ Okiboji, 2325 41st St, Spirit Lake, IA 51360

The Iowa Rock & Roll Music Association is sponsoring this event. I will be conducting an all-levels, all-ages songwriter workshop from 4-6p with a two-hour performance to follow at 7:30p. The workshop will cover some of the basics of songwriting (The ABC's of song-structures: what goes where; melody/lyric: what comes first? And why rhyme? in the first hour as well as more advanced components (trust-the-process, images rule, setting-up-the 'hook', mystery vs craft) in the 2nd hour. There will be a Q&A as time allows. Either or both events can be attended. There is no cap on attendance for the workshop (we don't want to turn anyone away:) There is no charge for either event although the IRRMA is asking for donations. For more info call (712) 330-6769
