Songwriting Workshop with Dan Bern
July 1 – 3, 2012
Join critically-acclaimed singer-songwriter Dan Bern for a two-day songwriting workshop for songwriters of all levels of experience and ability. This workshop is suitable for everyone from the veteran who has already recorded several CD's to the novice interested in working on their first song. The ability to play a musical instrument is not required, but helpful.
Dan Bern is best known for his prolific songwriting and electric live persona. He has released a dozen albums while spending well over a decade performing everywhere from coffee shops to Carnegie Hall. Since releasing his first album in 1997, Bern has built a strong underground following based on prodigious touring and output of songs in all forms. Since 2007, Bern has focused much of his talent and sharp wit on writing songs for movies and other projects. He composed over a dozen songs for the Jake Kasdan/Judd Apatow spoof-biopic Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story and wrote the title song for Jonathan Demme’s documentary, Jimmy Carter: Man From Plains. Bern also composed songs that are included in the Judd Apatow film Get Him to the Greek, starring Russell Brand and Jonah Hill. He has also contributed original songs for the off-Broadway production Family Week, directed by Jonathan Demme, including a duet with Emmylou Harris.
