AMERICANA SONG ACADEMY
SEPTEMBER 23 - 26, 2024
The Americana Song Academy inspires people to believe in their creativity and helps develop a community that supports that pursuit. Participants deeply engage and nurture their music, songs, and aspirations with the help of professional touring musicians.
This immersive camp will offer master classes on songwriting from professional musicians, 1:1 mentor sessions or small breakout sessions from support staff, intimate song circles and creative and emotional support from our academy staff. This year's retreat returns to the stunning performing arts camp Caldera, high in the Cascade Mountains. Set on mystical Blue Lake with exceptional facilities, Caldera was home to the Academy from 2002 - 2019 and will once again be the setting for this transformative experience.
“The ASA experience far exceeded my expectations. I arrived feeling tired and uninspired and I’m leaving with renewed hope and energy. And so many new friendships!”
