Songwriter Retreat 2023
Songwriting Workshop with Beth Nielsen Chapman
February 10-12, 2023

Following her spectacular live show at Blue Rock, Beth Nielsen Chapman led a group of songwriters through a writing workshop that led to new friends, new memories, and of course, new songs!
The retreat lasted the entire weekend and we simply cannot feel more creatively rejuvenated as Beth taught us about the "magic of creative flow," through her exercises, advise, stories, and examples.
Every night ended in-the-round with every artist showing off what they had spent the day working, and it could not have felt better!
Hope to see you at Blue Rock for the next one!
