Tiffin University’s School of Creative and Media Arts will host the 25th Annual Songwriting and Music Production Workshop from July 13 through July 18.
The camp is a total creative experience in music writing, performing and recording pop, jazz, R&B, a cappella, hip-hop and other commercial styles. The camp features individualized programs for high school and college students, as well as amateur and professional musicians and educators.
All attendees will collaborate with and receive personalized instruction from professional artists-in-residence. The 2024 artists-in-residence will be the Atlanta-based producer and recording artist, PRISCA and singer-songwriter, Regina Sayles, a Tiffin native now based in Pennsylvania. Students will work with this pair and additional instructors to write and record original music in a studio setting. These efforts will culminate on the camp’s final night in the form of a performance that is free and open to the public.
Campers will also participate in small bands and performing groups, receive solo coaching sessions and attend workshops on songwriting, live looping, studio production and other topics.
“Participants will get to work with our outstanding TU commercial music faculty including professional songwriters and producers who have years of industry success as well as visiting artists who are out there working in a variety of sectors and types of music creation situations,” said Brad Rees, Dean of the School of Creative and Media Arts. “It is really unique in that it gives participants from all backgrounds and experience levels a chance to explore developing their music-making skills in a supportive, accepting and collaborative environment. This year we are also extremely excited to offer the Songwriting and Music Production Workshop for college credit, available to both high school and college students.”
On-campus housing and meals are provided for an all-inclusive fee of $675. Space is limited to 50 campers, so interested students are encouraged to register as soon as possible. Campers will be in single, air-conditioned dorm rooms. Meals will be served in the Cole Dining Hall. Campers are also encouraged to bring any musical instruments they would like to use in their songwriting and production activities..
