How it works

Songwriting

This session works best for people who've played a little bit of guitar but don't currently have a habit of playing. We'll spend time figuring out what would motivate you to play your instrument more often and with greater satisfaction. Sometimes, this means finding a song that you love and making it your own; sometimes it means finding a new challenge that is just within your reach (not too close, not too far) and working toward it. Either way, the goal is to get you playing (again).
