Writing the Verse That Won't Leave You Alone
Bring one line you've been carrying — a fragment, a mood, an unfinished thought. We'll work it into a verse together.
Songwriting. Voice. Composition. Lyric. Storytelling. 90 minutes of real work, hosted by Daboo and the friends he keeps trusting with the room.
One click. No password. We use it to RSVP and send the joining link.
Choose what calls to you. Some free, some at member rate.
Joining link by email. Bring an instrument, notebook, or just your ears.
Keep working through the week with the rest of the community.
"The room was small, the work was real. People came in with fragments and left with verses."
"Three people sang for the first time in years. The honesty in that Zoom was rare."
"This is what music education should feel like — collaborative, honest, alive. Not a lecture."
"I came as a guest host. I left a member. The room is too good to leave."
Every workshop is on one of these — pick what calls to you, or sample all five over a year. Members get every track at member rate.
Two to four a month. Small rooms — capped at 20. Recorded for the community if you can't make it live.
Bring one line you've been carrying — a fragment, a mood, an unfinished thought. We'll work it into a verse together.
Technique matters less than honesty. Get out of your own way and let a line land. Bring a song you love.
How does a melody become a song? Start with a single note and build outward — chord, mood, structure, story.
Songs aren't just words. They're memory, image, and rhythm carrying a feeling across to a stranger.
An honest conversation about composing in 2026 — what works, what's broken, what young composers should know.
The art of singing for film. What playback singers know that nobody else does. An intimate Q&A.
Workshops aren't lectures. They're rooms where you make something.
Some workshops are open to all. Some are at member rate. Masterclasses are members-only. Choose your access.
A handful each month are free for the public. The same room, the same hosts — just a wider invite. RSVP early, they fill fast.
The full schedule, at member rate. Songwriting, voice, composition, lyric, storytelling. Members RSVP first, before anyone else.
90-minute Zoom rooms with composers, lyricists, and playback singers from Daboo's network. Capped at 30. Access that doesn't exist elsewhere.
The format is intentional. The room is small. Everything matters.
Google Meet, real time. You can ask, play, sing, share your screen. The room responds back.
Workshops are small on purpose. Everyone gets time. Everyone can ask. No back row.
An instrument. A lyric. A voice memo on your phone. The workshops work with what you bring — they're not lectures.
I expected a class. I got a room. Daboo asked one question and I wrote a song in 90 minutes I'd been avoiding for three years.
The masterclass with the lyricist — I've thought about that conversation every week since. Industry intimacy you can't buy.
I haven't sung in 20 years. The voice workshop was the first time I made a sound and felt heard. I cried after.
Free entry to taste the room. Paid depth when you're ready to live in it. Choose where you start.
Get a feel for the place. Discord, listening sessions, open jam, and 1–2 free workshops a month.
The full workshop schedule at member rate. Curated Jam Nights. Masterclass Conversations.
Limited to 50 a year. Quarterly 1:1 with Daboo. Retreat priority. Industry intros.
No. Workshops are designed for music-loving professionals — most of whom aren't formally trained. Show up with whatever you have. The room handles the rest.
Recordings go up in the community Discord 24 hours after each workshop. But the live experience is genuinely different — the room responds, the conversation builds, the energy shows up.
Rarely. If a host can't make it, we reschedule rather than cancel. Members get 48 hours notice and a credit for the next session.
Yes. Most members start in songwriting and end up trying voice or composition as they get comfortable. The tracks aren't gated.
Members can apply through the Discord. We're selective — but we're also growing. If you've got something to share, we want to hear about it.
Workshops are open to everyone — but members get the calendar invite, member rate, and Curated Jam Nights you can't get into otherwise.
