You will:

Learn about the songwriting building blocks

No previous experience necessary. Please bring something to write with and on for creating lyrics. If you play an instrument, please feel free to bring along - a guitar and keyboard will be available also.

Tickets are pay what you can either in advance here or on the day.

Have you also got tickets for Venn's live performance at SHRUB on Saturday 14 October? Synths, sax, ballads and bops, Venn's songwriting has seen him reach No. 1 on the LGBTQ Music Chart, with comparisons to Elton John, Erasure and Justin Vivian Bond.
