| Tuck Wilson Guest Artist Programs |
| In a typical performance workshop, Tuck performs a program of historically significant folk songs and explains the background and significance of each. Songwriting workshops interweave the performance into a creative writing workshop in which students write an original song while Tuck facilitates. Songs from the performance are used demonstrate the craft of songwriting. Whether you choose a performance or a writing workshop, your students will find the day truly memorable. |
| Current Workshops: |
| Workshops are a great way to bring history alive and to engage students in the writing process, especially poetry. Adding a melody improves students' ability to hear the meter and enhances rhyming skills. Tuck acts as facilitator while students write their own songs or as the class participates together in a "class" song. Tuck uses folk and pop songs to discuss a variety of approaches to songwriting, while he uses his editing skills to demonstrate first-hand the craft of songwriting. |
| Tuck has been performing in coffeehouses, on college campuses, and at concert halls and music clubs since he was in high school. |
