Testimonials from April 2024 Students:

"Thank you so much Buck. This life changing class was more way than I expected and I got way more out of it than I would have ever guessed. Went from 'just the lead guitar player in that band' to someone with a little bit (a lot) more confidence on my path to songwriter. Never thought I could have written a song and now I cant stop. Thank you so much for the inspiration, methods and tips, I really can't thank you enough."

"I really appreciated the way you taught us about approaching writing with a spirit of 'yes.' I feel like you really embodied this, especially in the last class where you magically arranged our ideas into a song skeleton. It was really freeing and fun to watch you in this process, and it unlocked a sense of permission inside of me to just throw some stuff against the wall and play with ideas. Thanks for the reminder to let go of the rules, have more fun, and find a more spaciousness in the process."
