songwriting is really about NOTICING. it's about underlining key phrases in conversations, tucking away a nugget to chew later, distilling the content and finding the magic thread through it all. collaboration with a professional songwriter can unlock your own creative juices. sign up for a free trial session today!

OOOO baby we've got joy in July! If you're free Wednesday nights (starting this week!) and want to feel empowered and easeful at the piano, PLEASE join us from 7:30-9:00pm in my homey downstairs studio for a four-week series taking you through my Level 1 Sit and Play Piano curriculum. In it, we'll cover the *very* basics, but not like you've seen it before! We'll focus on patterns and relationships, learning how to play in a certain Key to improvise and compose, read chord charts to sing along to pop songs, and speak the language of musicians to collaborate with others. this is music outside the lines: traditional music notation and STRESS BEGONE.
