The Pat Pattison seminar was a huge success for all participants. Pat used his unique teaching style to provide priceless information while creating a personal and relaxed atmosphere.

On Saturday morning Pat asked each participant the question "Who are you, and what do you want from me?". Each one of the attendees was able to introduce themselves and a background to their songwriting, and could ask specific questions about where they face challenges in their songwriting. All these questions were answered by Pat, providing the answers not only to the individual , but involving the entire class.

This created a very relaxed team atmosphere that was maintained throughout the remainder of the seminar.

Saturday afternoon Pat started teaching about "Writing Better Lyrics", an eye-opening session, where everyone learned a new tools and approaches to the craft of creating a song.

On Sunday afternoon Pat critiqued a songs by each participant, where he was able to show how to get to the next level in their songwriting process.

We are looking forward to welcome Pat again on his next trip to the UK.

I have found a blog from Simon Hawkins, one of the attendees, and I think he did a wonderful job of capturing the seminar in his blog at www.shhhmusic.com

Great seminar, great teaching, great people, great tips, great songs and more importantly two days later I still feel great! Well done Jae and Jeff for organising the seminar and to Pat for sharing his wisdom. Fionnuala
