In August 2010, the Gordie Sampson Songcamp was launched in Ingonish Cape Breton. Songcamp was conceived as a way for Gordie to share some of the experiences and insights he’s gleaned from his years as a successful songwriter with promising young Nova Scotia writers. For four very intense days, Gordie and Steve MacDougall lead co-writing sessions that result in dozens of great songs. Songcamp closes with a community concert where songs written during camp are performed for the public. In August 2011 Songcamp celebrated its first birthday with 6 returning writers from 2010 and 6 new writers. The group wrote over 30 songs together.
The Gordie Sampson Songcamp Circle at NS Music Week will be hosted by Steve MacDougall and will feature performances by 2010 and 2011 Songcampers including Carleton Stone, Molly Thomason, Mo Kenney, Breagh MacKinnon, Natalie Lynn and Dylan Guthro.
The Gordie Sampson Songcamp is supported by the Dept of Communities, Culture and Heritage-Province of Nova Scotia, Music Nova Scotia and SOCAN.
