UpStream Songwriter's Retreat



In 2026, we are introducing a fresh framework of Mindful Songwriting—
structured yet flexible, allowing freedom of flow.
Returning attendees will build on prior experiences, gaining direction and renewed inspiration.
We aim to cultivate awareness of the internal conditions that invite inspiration,
the phases of songwriting, and the interplay between intention and motivation.

"...The music was such high caliber, and I got to meet and chat with so many of the performers! The setting is breathtaking, surrounded by a majestic mountain range on all sides, with elk bathing in the lake right next to the stage, and the most magical sunsets! The vendors all had fun wares, the food trucks were fantastic, and there are showers right up the hill! Late night music circles in the campground, happy smiles, hugs from old friends and new ones... and readily available cold water for hydrating! SOOOO much to love here!!! "~Wendy E

EXCITING!
