WORKSHOP: Instant Songwriting with Highwire Improv

Learn how to craft new songs on the spot! Dive into musical improv games and create spontaneous songs in real-time.

​No experience? No problem! If you have experience, that’s fantastic too! We’ve got even more challenges and opportunities for you to push your skills further.

​ ​We’re trying something new with breakout groups. There’s one group for new people to learn verse and chorus songs, and another for returners to build on what they already know

​​The workshop will have us all together for warm-ups and end games, and then we’ll split into two break out groups for the middle section:

​​Returners: If you’ve been to one of our previous workshops or have experience with musical improv.

​​Beginners: If you’re new to musical improv or want to refresh your skills.

​The event on Luma is for informational purposes only. For tickets, see below

​Discover Musical Improv: Learn the basics of musical improv and explore common song structures, like verse-chorus or tagline songs. We’ll guide you through creating songs on the spot using simple techniques and patterns.

​Craft Songs Instantly: Experience the thrill of making up songs as you go. You’ll practice using straightforward methods, such as knowing when to add a chorus and taking turns singing, to help guide your spontaneous song creation.

​Get Hands-On Practice: We’ll focus on practical techniques and strategies to make instant songwriting fun and accessible. Whether you’re new to improv or a seasoned performer, you’ll get hands-on experience and learn how to use these methods effectively.

​Learn Content for All Skill Levels: This workshop is designed for everyone. From beginners to advanced players, everyone will find tailored content and challenges that make spontaneous song creation enjoyable.

​Enhance Your Stage Presence: Receive practical tips and techniques on how to be comfortable in front of a group. Learn how to sparkle with authentic trust in yourself and truly own the moment.

​Think of this as a creative hangout with friends, where we make songs for fun! We’re a casual community group, not a giant corporation

​We’re proud to be a nonprofit project fiscally sponsored by Fractured Atlas. This support allows us to accept nonprofit donations, which they make sure are exclusively used toward musical improv only. With this sponsorship, we could even have grants to support our group down the line!
