From the Community
“Carrie creates the most relaxed, accepting, and creative space for songwriters. I made friends and had laughs with the group along the way, plus I wrote one of my favorite songs during her songwriting sessions. We learned what to listen for in songs, dug into our purpose for writing, and worked on writing our songs. She built confidence in me as a songwriter and performer.” James G., Songwriter Sessions with Carrie Fall ’25
“The Granite is a truly warm and welcoming space where creativity and history connect. I loved being there with this group of songwriters and creatives and having Carrie lead us in breathwork, and gaining confidence. Anyone who is willing to show up and be vulnerable in community would and will benefit.” Madeleine C., Songwriter Sessions with Carrie Fall ’25
