Taking place at Rockfield’s The Coach House and The Quadrangle studios, which are steeped in music history, the event promises to be an inspirational setting for learning and creativity.

Celebrating Musical Heritage

The event celebrates Rockfield's rich musical heritage, having been the recording site for famous bands such as Queen and Oasis.

Pro7ect's Residential Songwriting Retreat follows immediately after, providing a platform where artists team up with seasoned producers to craft new music that's ripe for release. The list of producers for 2024 includes notable figures such as Julian Victor Hinton and Sophie Ackroyd. This retreat has gained momentum over the years, with a record of producing and releasing several successful tracks from its sessions.
