Whatever Is Stopping You From Writing the Song… Is the Song

Song ideas don’t always come from inspiration striking out of the blue. Very often, the most honest material is already close at hand — something we’re living with, pushing against, or quietly wrestling with.

In this workshop, we’ll turn the lens toward the experience of feeling stuck in songwriting and treat it as creative material rather than an obstacle. Instead of trying to fix or outsmart songwriter’s block, we’ll play with it, loosen our grip on it, and see what happens when we don’t take it quite so seriously.

Using simple prompts, light character work, and a few practical songwriting moves, we’ll explore how real emotions, inner voices, and everyday frustrations can become vivid, relatable song ideas when you give them some room to speak.

This is a live, interactive workshop. You don’t need to prepare anything, and there’s no expectation to finish a song. A few lines is plenty. The emphasis is on curiosity, humor, and shared exploration — not polish or performance.
