Dancing--all types, beats, etc. …

I believe that everybody can sing! That's why I've created this voice improvisation meet-up in Berkeley. My approach is inspired by the work of improv legends like David Darling, Bobbie McFerrin and local voice artist David Worm.

Like they do in Nashville, let's do some co-writing! Whether you specialize in lyrics, melody, chords, or all three, come join us with your partially-formed ideas to mix with others and form a tasty musical stew. This is different than other songwriting groups (i.e., it's not for bringing your already-written song for review by others, and it's not to learn how to write a song). Here we pool our talents and create one or two songs on the spot each time we meet.
