Workshops & Retreats
Terri Hendrix has run an independent record label since 1996, releasing all of her music through her own e-commerce store at her website. Her music has been used in independent films, commercials, and various other formats. She has over two decades of experience hosting women's retreats, youth camps, workshops, and corporate events.
She has also conducted workshops alongside producer and Austin City Limits Hall of Fame inductee Lloyd Maines. They have worked together since 1997.
Together they offer an all inclusive creative experience for everyone from the novice to the actively performing musician. An attendee can expect the brass tacks of releasing independent music in the digital age to be discussed as well as production, performance, and songwriting. Several handouts that delve into alternate tunings and rhyme schemes will also be made available to all attendees. Time is equally divided between the “The Part That Ain’t Art” (music business) and “The Part That’s Art” (creative approaches to all things songcraft and production). It’s a Q&A format in which both Hendrix and Maines engage each and every student. They encourage those that attend to bring their instruments and or their notepads and partake in what’s proven time and again to be an inspiring event for all involved.
