The Song Game

The Song Game

Free Creative Songwriting Lab

Launching Soon!

The Song Game Is a playful experiment —a weekly space with a soft deadline to learn to generate ideas, try new approaches, and share in the process. Now, it’s open to anyone who wants to show up for their songwriting, without pressure or expectation.

This FREE Game

will offer short, hands-on videos that guide you through prompts, exercises, and creative challenges.

These weekly prompts and discussions will give you a taste of the tools and inspiration that drive the courses Inside The Song Game. While you won’t have access to our in depth prompts, our private community, or peer feedback circles, you’ll still get the chance to:

  • Explore weekly songwriting prompts

  • Learn to experiment with all the elements of songwriting we explore, such as melody, lyrics, rhythm, and chords

  • Try playful techniques to help you generate ideas and work through creative standstills

  • Practice showing up consistently for your process

Who It’s For

Songwriters of all levels who want a fun, low-pressure reason to build consistency, follow ideas, and deepen their creative practice.

How It Works

  • Short, accessible video prompts released weekly on YouTube

  • The option to submit your songs to be added to our weekly public Song Game SoundCloud Playlist

  • No community or feedback required — just your own curiosity and commitment

The Song Game
is about playful discovery, experimenting without fear, and finding your very own rhythm in your practice of songwriting, one idea at a time. Jump in, begin creating, and see where
it takes you!
