SONG WRITING WORKSHOP: HOW DO YOU WRITE A PROTEST SONG (WITHOUT SOUNDING LIKE AN ANTSY PREACHER) with Dave Johnson
March 2 @ 2:45 pm - 3:30 pm

With major challenges facing human kind, from climate change to changing hegemonic powers, where are the protest songs? Popular music seems to be congested with narcissistic fluff!
This workshop takes council from the masters – Woody Guthrie, John Prine, Paul Kelly, Frank Jones. A deconstruction of some powerful protest songs and a close look at their techniques and writing styles.
