From the rooms

Voices from past workshops.

Songwriting Host

"The room was small, the work was real. People came in with fragments and left with verses."

Voice Coach

"Three people sang for the first time in years. The honesty in that Zoom was rare."

Composer

"This is what music education should feel like — collaborative, honest, alive. Not a lecture."

Lyricist

"I came as a guest host. I left a member. The room is too good to leave."

Five tracks

Pick a language.

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.

How a workshop runs

Small rooms, real work.

The format is intentional. The room is small. Everything matters.

Become a Member →
L

Live, not recorded

Google Meet, real time. You can ask, play, sing, share your screen. The room responds back.

20

Capped at 20 people

Workshops are small on purpose. Everyone gets time. Everyone can ask. No back row.

B

Bring something

An instrument. A lyric. A voice memo on your phone. The workshops work with what you bring — they're not lectures.

From the workshops

What members say

More Stories →

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.

Workshop questions

Things people ask

Do I need to be musical to attend?

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.

What if I can't make it live?

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.

Are workshops ever cancelled?

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.

Can I attend a workshop on a track I haven't tried before?

Yes. Most members start in songwriting and end up trying voice or composition as they get comfortable. The tracks aren't gated.

How do I become a host or guest workshop leader?

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.

Want into all of them?

Become a member.

Workshops are open to everyone — but members get the calendar invite, member rate, and Curated Jam Nights you can't get into otherwise.
