Here are some links to places on the web I really like:
www.summersongs.com
The fabulous Penny Nichols runs SummerSongs – a very hip songwriting camp for adults. New writers and seasoned professionals are welcome.
http://www.kerrville-music.com
Every year singer/songwriters from all over the country and beyond converge to camp under the stars and sing their own songs around Texas campfires.
www.mcclainscoffeehouse.com
The hippest, coolest coffeehouse in So Cal. (I play there the first Saturday of every month 7:00PM to 10:00PM, in case you didn’t know already.)
