Songwriting Workshop, July 20 2022
Women’s Guitar Group is very excited to present
Rose Turtle Ertler’s Songwriting Workshop
Open to all women and girls, including those who have never written a song as well as those with more experience. BYO your instrument of choice.
Rose has been writing songs for as long as she can remember. Her first original song was about Santa Claus – “Santa, he brings gifts to the kiddies / Santa, he brings the kiddies their goodies.” Brilliant, hey! Over the years, she has experimented with different songwriting methods and has written hundreds of songs on her own as well as collaboratively in bands. http://www.roseturtleertler.com/music
This workshop will be a fun look at some different approaches to songwriting. We’ll look at lyric writing, melody and song structure and explore lots of possibilities for ways to get started on writing a song.
