Michael McNevin

Songwriters, friends, musicians, this might be for you - as an old hand at it, or brand new at it, the camp teachers and students alike take a fresh look at songwriting, with nothing but time, support, beauty, and inspiration in all directions. This place is beautiful. $499 for five days - Cabins, walkways, ocean views, and the rustic outbuildings for hanging out, jams, songwriting classes, cafe concerts, evening concerts, great communal meals (3 delicious fresh squares a day). See old friends and make some new ones, write, cohort, jam, and enjoy the camp. A truly transformative time for everyone involved.

Wintersongs West is a 5-day gathering for songwriters that will again take place at the spectacular Camp Ocean Pines overlooking the Pacific in Cambria, CA, on January 24th to 28th, 2013. We are so pleased to have the legendary Bob Franke and our new pal Michael McNevin joining us, at WinterSongs West! Also old favorites: Rebecca Troon, Dale Laduke, Severin Browne, and Penny Nichols, will be offering an all-levels buffet of classes in songwriting, guitar, singing, harmony, performance, and more in addition to a full menu of concerts, coffeehouses, and song circles. Students and teachers alike will share songs, information, insights, trade stories and perform for the community we have grown to love. And it all takes place less than an hour north of San Luis Obispo. Join us! And don't forget - the students bring a wealth of information and experience too, so be prepared for lots of great information-swapping!
