What People Have to Say: 

​

"Music Week [with Friction Farm] has been transformative. When I came here, I lacked courage to really try to pursue music. In my first songwriting class here, I wasn’t finishing sentences. But, in five days here, I wrote two songs. There is something about this place – magical."   

- Renee E.  

"My first songwriting class was with Aidan and Christine.  Not only did we learn the processes and joys of creating a song with delightful mentors, participants supported one another as we created and shared our songs.  Christine and Aidan encouraged us to consider writing about a family story or other life event, this was a great way to consider what was important for ourselves, as well as learning about one another."
