How is a great song written? What are the secrets? Anyone can do it if they know how. right?? Andy will show you what he’s learned from writing 200 songs, recording 8 albums, having Mike Scott of The Waterboys just turn up at a gig after hearing his song ‘Whiskey Priest’ and much much more….

We will analyse song structure and harmony and collaborate to attempt to write a hit song, we’ll then have fun performing 2 songs each and talking through how we wrote them.

It’ll be fun!! The workshop is free!

The CAMRA award-winning bar will be open from 12.30pm. CARD payments only.

It’s free entry to OLC members & £1 to others payable at the bar.
