Write Songs That Rock! With The Board Of Education
by hillary dorwart
Ever wanted to perform a song you wrote yourself? Learn the tricks of the trade from the Seattle-based band, The Board of Education. BOE lead singer, children's novelist Kevin Emerson and his bandmates will give you some great tips at this songwriting session.
After jamming with them here, be sure to catch their performance at the library's summer reading kick-off event at Top of the Park later that night!
This event is co-sponsored by the Ann Arbor Summer Festival and 826Michigan.

They always say, "write what
They always say, "write what you know" so perhaps you should "sing what you know" too! The song-writing workshop has already occurred but that's no reason to keep you from writing your tunes!
