TERRA Songwriting

So proud of this crew. We had quite the weekend in Texas Hill Country. We dodged scorps, sang with the coyotes, and found new ways to write from places we hadn’t yet explored. Serious play. Big fun.

Our next songwriting retreat will be at the beautiful - a 500-acre Texas Hill Country property is an hour from Austin, TX and will surely provide plenty of inspiration for our writing and disconnection from our everyday lives.
Stay in a vintage Airstream, sleep under the stars on the sleeping porch, or bring along your own tent. Something tells me we won’t be spending much time inside! I love walking the retreat properties looking for little spots to sit down and write - I know you will, too.

We’ll spread out for speedwriting sessions, team up for collaborations, discuss songwriting topics as a group, and celebrate everything we create at nightly listening circles.

Join us April 18-21. More information at the link in bio.

Very excited to host another show in partnership with as we welcome , , and on 1/21/23.
We’re planning on simple, minimalistic vibes for this one. Like a Nordic living room.
Come hang.

This time next week (Thursday PM), 9 of us will descend on The Stanford House in Cuyahoga Valley National Park to write, connect, and work. We’ll write by ourselves during the speedwriting sessions, connect through collaboration and discussion, and work tirelessly to break down barriers left by our previous selves. Can’t wait.
Want to jump in with us last minute? Check the link in my bio or send a DM. We have space for a couple more. There are 3 other retreats this year - no excuses.

Happy to announce the next Terra Songwriting Contest is live now!

Songwriting Contest — TERRA OHIO CITY The song must be completed in it’s entirety within the contest dates - no using old songs or previous ideas. Honor code!

Very excited to officially announce the next TERRA Songwriting Retreat will be September 16-19 at the idyllic River Mountain.
I’m excited to explore the land while doing personal speedwriting sessions and hanging in the many gathering areas for focused time in collaboration. The nightly listening circles in the barn (we’ll be the only animals allowed) will surely be a special memory.
I already feel such anticipation and gratitude for being able to host these retreats. So many special moments to look back on - and so many to look forward to. I hope you’ll consider joining.
