**THIS IS AN IN-PERSON CLASS**
This class is for folks who have a little songwriting experience under their belts and want to practice in a workshop-style environment. Students will be encouraged to bring in some form of original material (old or new) each week to share with their peers. We’ll generate new material and, through guided feedback, delve into the editing process together.
There will be two sections of this class. Each section will be limited to 6 students.
Section 1 – 6:30-7:45pm ET
Section 2 – 8:00-9:15pm ET
Classes will meet Tuesdays, Jan 7, 14, 21, 28, Feb 4.
Please note: The class will be held at The Passim School of Music which is located at 26 Church St. Cambridge, MA. Classrooms are located on the third floor and, unfortunately, we do not have an elevator.
Limited to students 16 yrs of age or older. Online sales end 2 hours before the class begins. 4 students are required for this class to meet. If a class is canceled due to low enrollment, you will be notified and receive a full refund.
Nora Meier
- Folk
- Singer/Songwriter
Nora Meier is a diehard music fan, a frequent moviegoer, a daughter of two English majors, an Oregonian at heart, a verbal processor, a big reader, extremely stubborn, and always writing. She was raised on her dad’s curated mixtapes and epic vinyl collection, through which she developed a deep love for the format of The Album (and an obsession with Bruce Springsteen).
Encouraged by her mentor Moorea Masa to pursue her love of music, Nora began seriously honing her skills as an artist throughout her teenage years. In 2017 she wrote and produced her first single, “Icicles”, followed by a five-track EP, With Time. In their review of the EP, Divide and Conquer writes that Meier has “a magical combination of the deep rich tone of Fiona Apple and the jazzy melodic playfulness of Melody Gardot.” Her most recent single, “Close the Door”, was released in August and is now available on all streaming platforms. These projects would not have been possible without the support of artists such as Moorea Masa, Steve Swatkins, Margaret Wehr, Josh Powell and many more.
She lives in Boston, Massachusetts.
