Song Camps Encourage Collaboration

noname

Song Camps are growing in popularity as a way to introduce writers and pen songs for specific artists or sync placements.

ASCAP will be hosting its third Song Camp in Nashville November 16, 17 and 18. This event will bring together 15 hit songwriters from the Latin, Urban, Pop and Country genres. Scheduled to participate are Alexander Acha, Jessi Alexander, Aureo Baqueiro, Darrell Brown, Leonel García, Ha*Ash, Yoel Henriquez, Brett James, Stevie J., Natalia Lafourcade, Rivers Rutherford, JD Souther, Chris Tompkins, and Craig Wiseman.

It will be the first time that a cross-genre group of ASCAP writers will participate in the three-day series of songwriting, recording and performing. Song Camp was established in 2008 by ASCAP’s Latin Department and has taken place in Miami and Monterrey, Mexico.
