Day 2
CREATION
Today you will refine your writing skills. Learn from Grammy nominated, Nashville heavy hitter Bonnie Baker.
Baker has songs with artists as diverse as Rachel Platten, Zella Day, Rascal Flatts, Hunter
Hayes, Chely Wright, The Static Shift, Reba, Brantley Gilbert, Sara Evans, Emerson Drive,
Tenille Arts, Megan Davies and Raquel Cole. The top five titles from Baker’s catalog have over
150 million spins on Spotify as of January 2023.
She will be hosting a workshop on writing that will help you refine your hook, clearly share your story and dig into your song with a focus on connecting deeply to your audience.
Day 3
PERFORMANCE
Develop your artistry from a vocal and performance standpoint.
Learn from Nashville & LA’s sought after voice coaches, also known as the Vocal Lab Collective. This is made up of Shelby Rollins, and Jason Catron . Having trained with members of this group in Nashville myself over the past 10 years, I can tell you they offer amazing skills and insight that will elevate your abilities almost instantly.
You’ll watch the programs VIP members perform their chosen songs for them, and see how to improve a performance in real time as they get immediate feedback, tips and tools to elevate their songs and performance. Observing this type of coaching is the best way to develop as an artist, especially if you are a little self conscious on stage. You’ll learn just as much as the performers and gain valuable insight from some of the best in the biz!
If interested, there will also be the opportunity to add on private sessions with these coaches during your time in Nashville. (Extra investment required)
That evening we will all be heading out for a group dinner and live music where we will watch the work in action as we support our VIP songwriters as they perform live on stage in Nashville.
