  Are you a musician who wants to compose original material but you aren’t sure where to start? Do you have a poem or idea tucked away that you think could make a great song?
  
  Award-winning singer/songwriter Jaylene Johnson, Aqua's Songwriter in Residence for the month of June, has spent the last several years collaborating with dozens of musicians and producers across North America. Her work has been heard on the radio and on television. She’ll be sharing from her own experiences as a songwriter and be your guide through the process of co-writing songs.
  
  During the morning session, Jaylene will talk about how she began writing songs and where her journey has taken her: recording her own material, writing for and with other people, working with a publisher.
  
  This session will be interactive, and questions and discussion will be encouraged.
  
  After lunch, participants will have the opportunity to collaborate in small groups. Jaylene will be on hand to facilitate and guide groups as they work: picking a concept; developing the idea; arrangement / song structure; melody; editing. An opportunity will be provided during the last portion of the workshop for groups to share the songs they’ve developed and reflect on the experience.

  Jaylene has a deep passion for songwriting and the power of music and lyrics. Since releasing her first record (Not Forgotten) in 2000, she has worked and travelled all over North America. She has received nominations and awards and her music has used for notable television shows like Dawson’s Creek (CBS/Sony) and Being Ericka (CBC Television).
  
  Jaylene's latest project, Happiness, will be released this year, and is her first record to feature a majority of co-written songs.
  
  Sharing knowledge and skills is important to Jaylene, and with over ten years in the performing, creative and administrative sides of the music industry, she has much to share. She currently resides in Winnipeg, teaching high school English and preparing to launch her new record.
