WRITE ON! SONG WRITING
Marketing Coach
Music brings joy to the soul and energy to live! The Write-On program, founded and led by Nancy Laberge, gives emerging musicians the support and opportunity to grow their songwriting and performance skills. Based in Calgary, Alberta, the program is a hub for creativity, mentorship, and collaboration.
As a lifelong live music fan and amateur pianist, being part of Write-On is truly a labour of love for me. I provide marketing training to help participants build their brand as musicians and share their music with the world. It’s inspiring to watch these artists not hone their craft and gain the confidence to step forward and connect with audiences.
