Led by acclaimed New Zealand singer-songwriter Charlotte Yates, the Winter Songwriting Retreat is designed for more experienced songwriters ready to take their personal projects to the next level.
Building on Charlotte’s extensive career in songwriting, recording, performing and mentoring, this retreat offers a focused, supportive environment to deepen your craft and challenge your creative thinking. Through practical, workshop-style sessions, you’ll develop existing songs, explore new material and receive thoughtful, constructive feedback grounded in real-world professional experience.
Participants are encouraged to share works in progress, discuss creative and technical approaches, and engage in meaningful conversation around songwriting, performance and recording. The retreat attracts committed, like-minded songwriters who are eager to push boundaries, refine their artistic voice and expand the scope of their work.
This is an opportunity to step away from everyday distractions, work intensively on your songwriting, and be guided by one of New Zealand’s most respected songwriting voices in an environment that is both rigorous and warmly supportive.
