✨ About the camp
Oslo Songwriting Camp will gather a total of 24 artists, songwriters, and producers from across Europe and the U.S., staying together in 6 shared cabins (4 people per cabin).
The camp takes place in a peaceful, nature-close environment near Oslo, with a focus on creativity, collaboration, and connection. Accommodation is simple, food is home-cooked, and the vibes are good.
There will be briefs and suggested themes, but participants are free to create what they want. Artists in each group are there to work on their own artist project, and that’s the natural starting point for the songwriting sessions.
