Raleigh Song Doctor Workshop

Raleigh Song Doctor Workshop with song critique session, followed by an Industry Discussion.

TOPIC: How to set up your set

NCSC in conjunction with Songsalive! holds workshops where songwriters gather to share their songs, gain feedback and develop relationships within the songwriting communities we have created around the world. The first half is solely dedicated to an in-the-round workshop where writers present one song each - either on tape, CD or live - followed by a guest speaker/industry discussion in the second half and plenty of time to talk and network. Moderated by Jon Batson.
