Nashville recording artist Meghan Linsey and Record Producer Tyler Cain will play two songs, then launch into co-writing with the group. By the end of the hour, they will not only have written a song, but will also witness and contribute to actually producing a track. Tyler will demonstrate using a midi controller beat machine, along with layered guitar tracks to build a fully-produced original song. Aside from building a song, this session allows students/participants the chance to gain knowledge from music industry insiders. They are free to ask questions about anything from using Garage Band and recording on their own, to vocal audition techniques for television.
If you are not interested in writing a song, we can shift the focus to tips for being a working musician, and music production. Writing charts, gear, the musicians union, etc are all up for discussion, while Meghan and Tyler will still demonstrate producing a song.
$70 (also includes museum admission) at a 35 person minimum.
