Toronto 
Events Description
Winter Songbook is a cozy, all-inclusive songwriting weekend retreat designed for non-songwriters and the creatively hibernating.
You don’t even need to play an instrument or to have written anything more creative than an out-of-office reply!
Just bring a little curiosity and a willingness to see what happens.
Guided by award-winning songwriter Matt Epp, a small group of curious humans will spend the weekend playing with words, exploring unexpected ideas, and discovering the wonderfully surprising process of making songs out of seemingly nothing. No pressure to perform, just an invitation to try something new.
And between creative adventures? Delicious meals, a sauna, hot tub, beautiful countryside, and good company. Two nights to unwind, reconnect with your creativity, and perhaps surprise yourself along the way.
