What we’ll cover
Writing quickly: Writing fast quiets your inner editor. You’ll practice drafting from start to finish in a single sitting, so you spend less time stuck on the first verse and more time actively creating!
Lyrics: We’ll look at what makes lyrics land, using songs and materials Vikram has collected. We’ll focus on how to tell a story in a song, how to use vivid imagery, and how to zero in on a theme so your lyrics feel focused rather than scattered.
The music of it all. At least one class will be largely dedicated to the musical side: chord progressions, melodies, and more. You’ll leave with practical tools you can use to explore them on your own.
Who it’s for
Anyone who wants to write songs, from first-timers to people with a notebook full of unfinished verses. You don’t need an instrument. If you play, bring it along. If you don’t, we can build a track together, or you can write to a backing track you find online. No experience with music theory is required.
What to bring
A notebook or laptop, an open mind, and an instrument if you have one.
