Song Critique Workshops
Songsalive! holds workshops where songwriters gather to share their
songs, gain feedback and develop relationships within the songwriting
communities we have created around the world. The first half is solely
dedicated to an in-the-round workshop where writers present one song
each - either on tape, CD or live - followed by a guest
speaker/industry discussion in the second half and plenty of time to
talk and network. Moderated by Robert Sturgess.

MEET OUR LATEST AND
GREATEST TEAM MEMBER!
ROBERT STURGESS
Perth Chapter Coordinator
Robert Sturgess started writing songs at 20, in the naive
belief that this would be a great way to make a living… after all anyone can
write a song can't they?
As the new Perth chapter coordinator, Roberts' ambition is to pass on to others
what he has learned and believes that higher songwriting standards can only
emerge when there's a strong community learning, growing and supporting
songwriting as an art form. Learn more about Robert on TEAM page.
