Songbuilders’ Soiree

Since 2023 the Songbuilders' Soirée has conevened every other month to celebrate music, community, and the spirit of play. Songwriters bring us the tender fruits of their labor: songs! YOU, the amazing audience choir, will listen, sing along & even provide ideas for how we might arrange the song. You’ll witness the band figuring out arrangements in real time. 🤔💭WHY WE DO IT LIKE THIS❓⁉️❔ Music is a Social Technology, that helps us deeply connect to ourselves and others. Often, music is commodified — made into a neat “finished product.” While that’s not always bad, it can reduce vulnerability, immediacy, and full-spectrum authenticity from artists and concert goers alike. The structure and intention of the soiree welcomes us into a collaborative & communal creative process. Each song goes beyond what the songwriter could have imagined alone -- and you can't get any closer to the inspiration. Each of us brings our gifts and presence to co-create this field of inspiration. THINGS PEOPLE HAVE REALLY SAID "Better than Jacob Collier" “This feels like a wedding -- I love weddings!"
