SongLab is designed for students aged 13 to 17 who love music and want to learn to write their own songs. No prior songwriting experience is required, but it is ideal if students have at least 1 year experience on their chosen instrument or voice. More experienced students who have already experimented with songwriting can take their skills to the next level. Our unique building block approach makes songwriting simple and approachable for all skill levels, by breaking it into easy-to-follow steps. From crafting melodies and lyrics to hands-on production and performance, the process is interactive and fun, ensuring creativity is within reach for every student!
