This is a new series of workshops - this session will be on putting lyrics and music together to create effective songs - how do you start to write the music and lyrics? Which comes first? How can you create a song which appeals to your audience? This session will include some practical tips and an exercise in beginning to write a song on a given theme.

##### Whether you are a complete beginner or you've already written some songs, this is your opportunity to develop your songwriting.

The workshops take place in an informal, creative and supportive setting. Under the tutor's guidance, we pick up learning points in the craft of songwriting and explore imaginative ideas to help us create and develop our own songs.
We meet on Saturday mornings, usually the first Saturday of the month, at Stroud Green and Harringay Library, 11am-12:30pm.
In each session we listen to some existing songs and identify some aspects of what makes them work.
Then we focus on one characteristic and explore how we could use it in our own songwriting.
This can include, for example, chord progressions, melody, rhythm and other elements of song composition.
It's a creative approach, open to everyone at all levels - you do not need any musical theory or ability to play an instrument.
