LeAnn Phelan To Host Creative Therapy Workshop In March

/by

Longtime industry executive LeAnn Phelan is launching her 35th LP Creative Therapy Workshop on March 10-13 for songwriters from around the globe.

Her latest offering is open for anyone wanting to expand their knowledge of the industry and get back to the basics of what songwriters do so well—focus on the song. The Workshop is not genre specific and is open to songwriters globally. The one-hour Zoom workshops will take place at 5 p.m. CT and replays will be available. More information can be found here.

Highlights of this year’s workshop include “4 Steps Closer to a Publishing Deal;” “Essential tools for Creative Wellness on the Songwriter’s Journey;” “Finding Your Voice;” a Q&A and input from special guests Allen Shamblin and Shane McAnally.

Phelan curates the live experience by getting to know each songwriter and meeting their needs based on their interests. Her experience in the industry ranges from touring background singer to publisher to artist management. Participants also learn from publishers, managers, attorneys, hit songwriters, newly-signed songwriters, agents, A&R and more.

“SMACK was one of the first companies to see the value in Creative Wellness Coaching for songwriters and I’m so excited to have songwriter/producer Shane McAnally as a Special Guest Mentor on the upcoming series,” says Phelan. “Shane has written, and/or produced over 50 No. 1 songs, garnered three Grammy Awards, been nominated for more CMA Awards than any other songwriter in history, and been named ACM’s Songwriter of the Year twice. And you can’t be a mentor on Music Row without quoting Allen Shamblin. His very presence is encouraging. I’m excited to learn from Shane and Allen and I know this will be a great way to celebrate 5 years of encouraging songwriters to keep going!”

Phelan will follow with the Spring LP Creative Workshop for those that want to dive in deeper. A full scholarship to the the seven-week course will be given away during the March workshops. The seven-week course begins March 31.
