Songwriting Workshops Whilst not a folk singer as such his most recent songs have concentrated on the folk art of story-song writing and Reg’s songwriting workshops often look at working with stories in songs. Whether they are true, fictional, love stories,anecdotal and observational, or just someone’s own story, Reg will demonstrate techniques and tips for telling a story through a song. His workshops will be tailored to meet the needs of organisers and participants and can consist of a combination of presentation/lecture, demonstrations, Q&A session, and listening time and critique of participants own songs.
Pennyblack Music says:
“Calling Meuross a singer-songwriter really doesn’t do the man justice. Meuross doesn’t write lines of lyrics. He writes short stories then sets them to some of the most captivating melodies you’ll ever hear.”
Pete Townshend says:
“Reg’s composing and performing is not bound or influenced by trends or fashion or the need to make a display. Reg will be a good man to listen to when the time comes to look at developing your own way to be your own singer-songwriter.”
Reg has given lectures and presentations on songwriting, and has run workshops and courses in the following places: Durham University; La Grande Gennerie, Francel; festivals including Shrewsbury, Beverley, Trowbridge, Ely, Southwell, Weymouth, Towersey, Wath and Wombwell; London Song Company Summer Fest; several English schools (ages 9-16); West Coast Songwriters in California; Kerrville Folk Festival Texas, and Uncle Calvins Coffee House Series in Texas
