Songwriting Seminar With Ken Gaines

How to Get Out of Your Beautiful Rut

After a while, we all tend to write the same type of songs and we can find ourselves in a "beautiful rut." Singer-songwriter Ken Gaines will take you back to the basic music elements of songwriting and teach you a structured approach to bringing variety into your songs, an approach that can be used for the rest of your life. Adults or ages 15 and older.

After a while, we all tend to write the same type of song over and over. Even if we are successful with the results, it becomes our "beautiful rut." Singer-songwriter Ken Gaines will take you back to the basic music elements of songwriting and teach you a structured approach to bringing variety into your songs, an approach that can be used for the rest of your life.

Adults or ages 15 and older.
