Press, KATC TV 3: "Songwriters Festival and Workshop planned for May"

Organizers have set the first-ever South Louisiana Songwriters Festival and Workshop for May 22 to 27 in Lafayette.

The new event combines a workshop portion that will bring together established and aspiring songwriters in a retreat-style atmosphere for four days of mentoring, creating and collaborating as well as a performance portion in the form of a weekend festival. The Festival's website is SOLOSongwriters.com. Organizers say they hope to hold the event annually. 

The Buddy Holly Educational Foundation will present the workshop. The Foundation presents similar annual workshops in the UK but this is the first one to be held in the US.
