At Camp What The Folk, I will take you inside my creative process and share how I write songs—start to finish. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to sharpen your craft, this is a rare chance to learn directly from a working troubadour’s approach to songwriting.

I’ll break down the influences that shaped my style, the tools I’ve picked up along the way, and the songwriting method that’s consistently led me to at least one great song a year.
