ABOUT

Songwriting Workshop for Girls - Hosted at Pretty Loud Studios

Join us for an inspiring and creative songwriting experience designed especially for girls aged 10–17 years, hosted at Pretty Loud Studios.

This hands-on workshop gives young creatives the opportunity to explore their voices, build confidence, and discover the exciting world of music creation in a supportive, empowering environment. Throughout the day, participants will develop their songwriting skills, learning how to turn ideas and emotions into lyrics, melodies, and original songs. Guided step-by-step, they will collaborate, experiment with creativity, and grow as young artists.

A highlight of the experience is the chance to perform their original songs on a real stage, celebrating their creativity in a safe and encouraging space. Participants will also capture memories through photos and videos, make new friends who share a love for music, and gain insight into how the music industry works behind the scenes.

The workshop is led by Amy Tjasink, a chart-topping songwriter and co-founder of Pretty Loud, alongside Erin Elliot, an inspiring creative mentor and passionate advocate for young artists. Erin brings a warm, encouraging energy and a strong commitment to helping young musicians feel confident expressing themselves. Together, Amy and Erin combine professional industry experience with a shared passion for nurturing the next generation of artists.

Amy and Erin will share practical knowledge about songwriting, creativity, and navigating the music industry - helping participants understand how songs move from ideas to real releases.

Pretty Loud has become known for creating opportunities that amplify young voices and support the growth of women in music. Through workshops, artist development, and creative collaboration, the organisation is committed to building confidence, skills, and representation for girls and women in an industry where their voices are increasingly shaping the future of music.

No prior experience is needed - just curiosity, creativity, and a love for music.
