You don’t need to be a trained musician to write and produce a hit song! In this workshop, we learned the art of music-making and songwriting using the online digital workstation, Soundtrap. After learning the music process from idea to lyrics to song, we worked in small groups to develop a chorus that can be the starting point of their musical journey.
