A great retreat to learn about the craft of songwriting. I met many talented people at the retreat and came away with some new tools, and friends. Highly recommended.

Andrea’s retreat was amazing! Exactly what I needed and I can’t wait to see the wonderful things that come from every artist there.

I attended Andrea's songwriting retreat on the outskirts of Nashville, Tennessee August 8-12 of 2022. The location itself is gorgeous, nestled in the tree-lined hills, complete with gorgeous vistas. Each day I was happy to be there and just experience the sights and sounds of nature.I have never attended a songwriting retreat, so this was a first for me. The environment Andrea and her team created, is a very warm, encouraging experience, and leads one to know, right from the start, that they are in a supportive environment, where their creativity can flourish. The seminars provided by Andrea (who is amazing) and fellow musician Luke Yates (also amazing) were top notch and always pertinent to the task at hand. I really enjoyed the co-writing sessions, and am sure you will too; it is so great to collaborate with kindred spirits. I'm confident that relationships fostered over the course of the retreat, will serve as a means of encouragement and inspiration for years to come. A nice surprise, was a Q & A session with one of Nashville's most talented writers, Mr. Jay Knowles. He not only answered our questions, but provided valuable insight into the industry, played one of his original songs for us, and even provided group feedback on our songs. I came away with a lot of tools that I know will serve me well. Not the least of which, was fostering friendships with likeminded individuals who share a love for music and the creation of it, through songwriting. I highly recommend Andrea Stolpe and her songwriting retreats. I for one, will be attending again in the near future. I hope to see you there!

The online retreat was a fantastic experience. The content and knowledge provided by Andrea was excellent and I learnt a great deal in attending the sessions. You also get connected to a great network of musicians that are supportive and would like to collaborate. If you are unsure about your musical journey and need some guidance, I thoroughly recommend taking this retreat, either online or in-person

Andrea is a master. She explains things in a way that really lands with me. Almost as if she's teaching things that I already know but haven't been able to articulate.

There’s such a beautiful intelligent calm to your creativity Andrea. Thank goodness you are an educator as well as a songwriter, you are perfectly placed in the musical kingdom. Deeply inspired by your retreat and our creative lands are now watered and ready for harvest. Thank you, your fantastic team and all our songwriters this weekend.

Andrea's online songwriting retreat is so thoughtfully designed with a great balance of education, real-life advice, opportunities to collaborate and awesome Q&A's where you get one on one attention about whatever it is you're needing feedback on! This retreat has made me a better songwriter and has brought some new collaborators into me life! Highly recommend it!

Andrea and her team (we met Madison and Luke, and guest writer Jenn Schott) have been absolutely fantastic. They are extremely knowledgeable and experienced and super helpful. They put lots of energy in offering an experience that is empowering, educational and great value all around. I couldn't recommend them enough and I am looking forward to making some great songs with some of the people I've met, using my newly acquired knowledge.
