Four intensive days at Engers Castle, where you will learn to combine guitar and vocals as a singer-songwriter unit—musically, rhythmically, and performatively.
This camp is not purely a singing course (like VocalCamp) or purely an acoustic guitar workshop: it's about the interplay between accompaniment, voice, expression, and stage presence.
