The Experience
Designed for Talent Is Timeless songwriters, this London-based accelerator offers an immersive entry point into the professional songwriting world. Over four focused days, participants collaborate in intensive co-writing sessions, learn directly from publishers, sync agents, and hit songwriters, and take part in curated evening experiences that mirror real industry culture. With close mentorship, structured collaboration, and space to experiment and grow, songwriters leave with new work, deeper confidence, and meaningful creative connections — including a professionally filmed live session at Abbey Road Studios.
Songwriting
Immersion
Each day includes guidance from professional songwriters, followed by hours of focused co-writing. Writers are intentionally paired to encourage new creative chemistry and higher-level collaboration. Evenings include relaxed song circles, offering a supportive space to share work, listen deeply, and strengthen confidence within a trusted group.
London
Moments
The experience begins with an opening night country music showcase in Camden, filming the finale of Talent Is Timeless episode 2. It culminates in a live session recorded at Abbey Road Studios, where participants perform a song written during the accelerator. The final evening brings the group together at a respected London music venue, to celebrate the accelerator and the relationships formed.
Industry Access
Small, daily, group seminars with experts allow participants to get the answers they need by pulling back the curtain on industry gatekeepers. We will be sitting down with sync and publishing agents to help you figure out what success looks like for you, and how to get there in an industry full of misinformation. You will learn the do's and don'ts of approaching high level decision makers you want to reach.
