Collaborative Songwriting: Write a Song with an Industry Pro

Overview 23 Lovely Attendees

About this FieldTrip

Have you ever written a song? Are you a writer, who has been itching to try out your craft set to music? Not a writer, but love music? Here’s your chance to try something you may never have thought you’d have a chance to do: create music with your fellow morning people! Join us this Friday for a workshop in collaborative songwriting.

This FieldTrip will be led by CMATX’s music guy, Mark Epstein, the founder of Buildsong, a creative workshop/team building company. A talented musician, Mark has toured with many national acts and has composed and produced countless songs.

The best part? Musical ability is not necessary. If you’ve experienced the human condition, you’re qualified. Mark will help you get in touch with your inner songwriter.

Check out what we did at the 2016 CreativeMornings global organizer summit held in Austin.

How to make the most of FieldTrips

The FieldTrips experience is defined not only by what the host has to share, but also by how we show up individually and collectively. The way we show up impacts our capacity to be moved, inspired, and activated.

Show up fully

Get ready to be immersed! Engage with smiles, nods, waves, emojis. Share in the chat. Get cozy. Turn off notifications. Sip your favorite beverage.

Stay curious

Wear your beginner’s hat. Go with the flow. Welcome the stumbles and fumbles. Congratulate yourself for trying. Keep going! 

Celebrate your host

Our hosts are members of the CreativeMornings community—just like you! Everyone comes to this with different backgrounds—a lot of our hosts have never done anything like this before! And we love that! Cheer them on when something goes awry and when it goes perfectly.

Support each other

We’re all figuring things out in real time. Celebrate, rather than critique emerging ideas. Cheer each other on as you try new things.  Try “Yes! And…” in conversation.

Not vibing?

It’s 100% okay when a FieldTrip does not resonate with you. Pop out quietly and try another experience later. Fill out the survey with your feedback (no dms to host or chat commentary, please.)
