Big Thief announce virtual songwriting workshop to raise money for charity
Big Thief have announced that they're hosting a virtual songwriting workshop later today (24 July) to raise money for charity.
The "songwriting and creativity masterclass" will be hosted via Brooklyn Music Factory, and will see Big Thief donate proceeds from the workshop to The People's Bodega - "a mobile mutual-aid collective that provides everything from PPE, sunscreen, food, water, and more to NYC protesters against police brutality."
Big Thief's songwriting class is open to the public with a suggested donation amount.
