WRITING YOUR RECORD: a 12 Week Online Workshop (Jan-March 2026) EARLY BIRD PRICING

WRITING YOUR RECORD: JAN - MARCH 2026

12 Saturdays @ 11am PST / 2pm EST for 90 minutes from Jan 3rd - March 28th

Lifetime access to the videos & optional study halls and song shares. 

Whether you've written fifty songs or just one, the challenge of creating a cohesive body of work will push you to refine your sound, explore your creative depths, and discover the themes and stories of your life that are most worth sharing. Learn the essential techniques to generate vibrant song ideas quickly, then refine and revise them until you are confident in every word, every chord, every melody. Our small, supportive community will witness you, hold you accountable, and cheer you on as you write your record.

The 12-week timeframe will invite you to laser-focus your musical energy, eliminate distractions, and access the deepest wells of creativity within you.  Spoiler alert: You will have to prioritize your music over other some other earthly delights for these 12 weeks. 

 Greta Morgan is a songwriter, storyteller, and multi-instrumentalist who began her career at age 16 and has performed worldwide since.  She fronted Springtime Carnivore, Gold Motel, The Hush Sound, was a touring member of Vampire Weekend, and has performed as an accompanist for Jenny Lewis. Her first book, The Lost Voice, is out now on Harper One.

What you'll gain: 

Clear Vision: By narrowing your focus to create a single body of work, you'll gain a deeper understanding of your unique sound and artistic identity, allowing you to create a cohesive and evocative record. 

Artistic Exploration: Uncover the stories of your life worth telling and push your creative boundaries by writing from unconventional perspectives. 

Guidance: Receive personalized feedback and mentorship from me as I act as your musical cheerleader / creative mirror / song psychic. I will help you overcome creative hurdles and polish your record until you walk away thinking, "holy shit! I can't believe I did this." 

Community: This is a glowing, loving, supportive corner of the internet. Having the intimacy and accountability of a small group of 20 writers will help you finish songs faster and have more a-ha moments because we'll collectively encourage experimentation and creative bravery, reflect what's working, offer new possibilities, and hold each other's budding songs with tender care.

Added Resources: 

• • A toolbox of song building blocks (drum samples, banks of chord progressions, generative writing prompts)
    
  • Meditations to uncover all the songs waiting to be discovered
  • Multiple weekly Study Halls (online songwriting time for community and accountability) 
  • Ongoing mentorship & support for outrunning your inner critic, finding the secret chord you seek, shining up your lyrics 
  • A Discord community to connect with your fellow writers

Please note: There are options to break the class price into monthly payments at checkout. 

You’ll have lifetime access to the recordings of this workshop and the Discord class community.  If you cannot attend the Saturday classes live, you are still welcome to participate and watch at your own pace.  

Zoom link for class will be mailed out 48 hours before class and a reminder with the link will be sent on the first day of the workshop. Thank you! For any questions, please email gretamorganworkshops@gmail.com 

Study Hall: Built-In Accountability and Support Study Hall is where we all come together on Zoom, cameras on and mics off, to quietly get our work done side by side. We’ll begin and end each session with brief check-ins—just a moment to say what you’re working on and how it’s going. It’s a simple but powerful structure for accountability, helping you show up and stay focused. We’ll choose the meeting times based on everyone’s availability so they fit as seamlessly as possible into your schedule.

There are 2 reduced rate scholarship positions available. To apply, please email me at gretamorganworkshops@gmail.com by December 15th, 2025 with two recent pieces of music or lyrical writing as well as some background about why you're applying and what you hope to create in this class. Scholarships will be chosen by December 20th, 2025. 

TESTIMONIALS: 

"My favorite part of this workshop was walking away each week with a new lens -- I saw my songs, as well as countless classics, in a way I had never considered before. Suddenly, I was listening to the music I love with new ears. This approach reinvigorated my love of songwriting, problem solving, and listening. It was eye-opening to be in a community of like-minded people with a broad spectrum of influences and experiences. I couldn’t believe the songs people were writing from week to week. Putting our heads together helped me shed some fears around the blank page, and broke down my preconceived notions of what songwriting can be. Greta’s whole-hearted approach to teaching left me feeling held and challenged every week and I’ll carry her teachings with me always." - Cassandra Jenkins (recent record: "My Light, My Destroyer") 

“Greta is a master at marrying the magical and intuitive processes of writing with the technical tools and rules of the craft. She teaches both how to listen to your innermost voice, and how to use tangible, tried-and-true techniques to express it. I was new to songwriting when I took my first workshop with her, and she created a  comfortable, fun space to explore. She meets her students exactly where they are and gives her whole presence in helping them create authentic work. No matter where you are on your writing or songwriting journey, Greta's technical knowledge and heart-centered approach to mentoring are very special." - Jade W (recent record: "Dizzy" EP) 

"Greta Morgan is a uniquely gifted songwriter and educator. Her impassioned approach to teaching is soulful and stirring, while remaining grounded and pragmatic. I highly recommend any of Greta’s courses to anyone who is curious about music, or developing their writing skills." - Nicole Lawrence (Songwriter + Guitarist with Coldplay, Jenny Lewis, Devendra Banhart, King Tuff) 

"It is a special moment when you enter a workshop feeling lost and intimidated, and walk away empowered to write all day. Greta guides participants through a unique blend of inner soul-searching with writing tricks, prompts, and exercises. This is where Greta shines as an instructor: While she has irreplaceable insight into songwriting and the music industry as a whole, she also teaches the sacredness of songwriting. She teaches how to treat your songs with respect as you freewrite, visualize, soft-rhyme, hard-rhyme, create metaphors and similes, and fine-tune your way to a song you are proud of.

I recommend Greta's workshops to songwriters of all backgrounds and skill levels. No matter where you are in your songwriting journey, you will find a lot of value, comfort, and empowerment under Greta's tutelage." -Andrew W.  

Greta’s workshops are an unmissable experience for anyone on a journey to unlock their personal brand of creativity. -Joey W

Not only does Greta provide fun, memorable, and original material and tools for her workshops, she also creates and maintains an inclusive and safe space for songwriters of all levels and backgrounds to share their questions, thoughts, and writing works!.  love how she encourages writers to think outside the box and explore the world around them (big or small) for inspiration, all while staying true to themselves and their own style. I have followed Greta’s career for 15+ years, and can say with complete sincerity that there is no one I trust more for songwriting guidance and mentorship! -Amanda K

As a writer and vocalist, I have always been drawn to the idea of writing my own songs. However, I often felt my limited musical knowledge would forever prevent me from making songwriting a reality. Greta Morgan's workshop gave me the space to abandon the constraints of music theory and my inner critic––for good. Greta's nurturing and holistic approach to songwriting allows songwriters at all levels to flourish. Whether you're learning how to sow (song)seeds or growing a garden full of songs, Greta is there every step of the way to help you reap the benefits of your own creativity. -Ashley G

It’s almost impossible to get “writer’s block” if you use Greta’s techniques.  I can’t tell you how many times I’ve arrived at a session thinking I had nothing to say and left with a completed song. I can't say enough about how much she’s helped me grow. - Rachel R.

“I’ve learned so much about myself as a writer and human, on top of being able to finally see my dream record come to life.” - Courtney M.
