The folks attending and teaching were incredible. Tips and tricks very helpful. Productive cowrites and inspiring concerts/shows.

Andrea helped me grow in every way- lyricist, structure, and how to be unique. I can't recommend her highly enough!!

Learning tips on how to not get stuck either starting or finishing a song, and on how (and why) to co-write with one or more others.

Andrea is an incredibly thoughtful and wonderful human being. She has a remarkable ability to express the human condition through song and help others do the same. I would highly recommend her mentorship program for any serious songwriters.

This was an incredible experience! All the people involved were incredibly friendly, the food and location was awesome, and most importantly I felt like songwriting was conceptualized for me in a way that made sense. I made lasting creative friendships and community and really improved my art. Would highly recommend this to any creative spirit! Shout out to Andrea and Maddison for making it possible :)

I'm a singer-songwriter, and I did the online retreat, then 1-1 mentorship with Andrea, and it was really great. I'd recommend it to any songwriter; all levels, too. IMO, she's the best in the world. She's a true songwriter; not just a teacher. And I could tell she genuinely cares when she gives advice. I remember seeing some other comments from people saying they feel she's stretched thin, and maybe not 'hanging around' much, but I suspect that's just her being concise. Because she's always to-the-point. Whenever I thought her response to me was short, I kept going back to it, and noticing it said everything it had to say. ;)

This retreat was one of the most rewarding experiences. Go to this retreat!! Andrea's teaching is so clear and easy to understand, with actual helpful concrete skills to improve songwriting - if you've seen any of her content, you already know this. But this retreat takes it to the next level with opportunity for co-writing and constructive feedback in a safe and comfortable space. Whatever your strengths/weaknesses are in songwriting, there is a good balance to help you flourish in your strengths and challenge you to grow.

Best songwriting retreat I have ever been too! Andrea is a force for inclusion and growth. The location was incredible!
