The Honey Dewdrops Songwriting Workshop

The Honey Dewdrops Songwriting Workshop

Does your songwriting need a boost? Take a Master Class from masterful songwriters, The Honey Dewdrops! Tickets are free but registration is required. Please review The Smith’s COVID 19 policies before registering for this event. “This workshop will focus on creativity and songwriting with an emphasis on lyric writing. We’ll explore the importance of making songwriting a regular practice by addressing two ways of working: covering your favorite songs vs. generating your own ideas. First, we’ll look at why it is important to collect ideas and inspiration from outside sources by listening to and then learning your favorite songs. How do your favorite songs make you feel? Why do you keep returning to your favorite songs? How does learning to play songs help you write your own songs? Next, we’ll look at how to generate lyrics and musical ideas on your own. To do so we’ll take 5 minutes to write our own haikus to get the creative writing juices flowing. Then we’ll look at a few word play games that are designed to quickly generate ideas rather than just sitting and hoping for a great idea to come. Last, we’ll give a few examples of our own songwriting and scaffold the process of how we came up with the idea and lyrics for each song.”
