AMERICANA SONG ACADEMY
SEPTEMBER 22 - 25, 2025
The Americana Song Academy inspires people to express themselves creatively, support one another’s artistic aspirations, and helps develop a community that supports that pursuit. Select artists performing at the Sisters Folk Festival arrive early to teach many aspects of music, songwriting, performance, singing, etc. Participants deeply engage to nurture their music, songs, and creative aspirations.
The retreat has returned to the stunning performing arts camp Caldera, high in the Cascade Mountains on the mystical Blue Lake. Song campers will benefit from instructor-led workshops, instructor performances, participant open mics, one-on-one mentor sessions, and group singing. With a beautiful and powerful location and a unique, intimate experience, the event continues to be
highly anticipated and sells out early each year.
“The ASA experience far exceeded my expectations. I arrived feeling tired and uninspired and I’m leaving with renewed hope and energy. And so many new friendships!”
