West Coast Songwriters

WCS San Rafael Zoom Songs in Progress First Thursday of the Month

This is a non-judges event, and we will limit it to one song each (unless we have fewer than 10). This will be a Songwriter “Nashville” Style Round and we’ll talk about the song before and after.

Please email Margaux and let her know if you would like to attend! Space is limited to 10 songwriters.

We also welcome people who just want to listen and enjoy connecting with other songwriters.

The ZOOM meeting will start at 6:45pm to check in, mingle (virtually of course) and be ready to start at 7:00PM, so please be on ZOOM and ready. Margaux Joy DeNador margauxjoy@denador.com
