It all begins with an ideaβ¦
Weβre here to support and help you develop your style and confidence in songwriting. Sometimes all you need is one lyric, a short chord sequence or even a single note to begin the process. Weβre here to support you and help you develop your songwriting. It is essential that our sessions are guided by you after allβ¦ itβs your music.
Developing your styleβ¦
Whether youβre interested in writing a particular style of music, improving your composition skills for a school project or actually aspiring to become an artist with a career in music, our songwriting sessions are tailored to suit your musical needs and aspirations. Weβre not here to actually write songs for youβ¦ but we are here to offer an experienced musical ear and encouraging you to express yourself through writing your own music.
Q: Is it true that most pop songs are made from the same four chords?
A: not necessarily!
We think sometimes that having a little music theory knowledge can be really beneficial when it comes to creating and developing your own songs. By listening to and analysing existing songs you enjoy, you can learn a lot about song structures, commonly used chord progressions, instrumentation and production.
