Songwriter sessions are typically a chance to be a fly on the wall as musicians perform their original songs and then share their thoughts, feelings, and opinions on the craft of songwriting.
This Saturday night, May 11, those four walls will be the Community Arts Café. Winston-Salem Songwriter Sessions kicks off at 8:00 pm with performances by local artists Tyler Nail, Jonathan Loos, Quique Rodriguez-Pastor, and Andrew Lazare. David Ford will be emceeing the event and after each song he will ask a question or two of the artists and then audience members can chime in too with questions or comments of their own. Tyler and Jonathan spoke with David in studio A where they later performed their original songs. We're sampling from that recording session today, and you can hear the complete session this Friday afternoon at 1:00 pm during Triad Arts Weekend.
