Songwriting Course
April 28, 2010
We are beyond excited to have Mindy Edlin teaching a songwriting course at Greenleaf this summer! The class has been moved to 4-5:30 pm and will meet on Thursdays from July 1-August 5th. The class culminates with a coffeehouse performance of original music.
At an early age, Mindy recognized the importance of creativity through music. At the age of four, she began to take a special interest in the piano, playing by ear and participating in public performance opportunities. By the age of fifteen, she began to compose her own songs on both the guitar and piano. She fell in love with expressing herself through her original lyrics and melodies. Mindy studied and lived in Nashville for five years, earning a BA in Music Business at Trevecca Nazarene University with an emphasis in songwriting. Her work experience includes Music Publishing companies such as Universal Music Group and Lofton Creek Records. She has taken part in many songwriter nights in Nashville including at the legendary “Bluebird Café”. She has also co-written several songs with Nashville songwriters including Jason Duke and Dove award winner, Michael Puryear. Mindy regularly performs in worship settings as well as at local venues and offers songwriting courses at Greenleaf Academy.
Don’t miss hearing Mindy perform at our variety night coffeehouse on Saturday, May 1st at 7 pm. Admission is $5 and includes a beverage. 521 E. Kansas City Road, Olathe, KS 66061. [additional parking at Olathe North High School]
