Come and write a song with multi-award-winning folk duo, The Maes. Maggie and Elsie Rigby grew up firmly rooted in the folk music tradition. A culture and a community that believes that making music is for everyone. Everyone can and should sing, and everyone can and should write songs. Songwriting is a way to catch feelings and turn them into art. Everyone who has feelings can write songs!

Have you always wanted to write a song? Do you start writing songs all the time and have no idea how to finish them? Do you find yourself writing the same song over and over again and want to find a way to change it up? Come along and listen to Maggie and Elsie share their insights and experience of the elusive art and craft of songwriting. Discuss, inspiration, creativity, song structure, editing and much more. Come with a feeling, and leave with a song!
