This is the 4th year Norwegian publishers The Woods and daWorks Music Publishing, supported by The Norwegian Music Publisher Association, will invite professional Norwegian, British and international songwriters and artists to Bad Manors' songwriting camp. Bad Manors 2023 retakes place Monday 20th - Friday 24th November at Seven Springs House (https://goo.gl/maps/McH3mV7ywewMS8yS6), a mansion in Cotswolds, in the English countryside, just a couple of hours outside London. This combination of inspiring, beautiful scenery and living facilities encourages uninterrupted creativity. 

Over three days, 15 songwriters and 5 artists will participate in songwriting teams focusing on contemporary hit songwriting with a unique Scandinavian and British twist; Pop, R&B, hip hop, and EDM. In total, five teams will be announced at breakfast each morning. Five artists who need songs for their upcoming recording projects will join the teams for co-writing (the artists have a first option to cut the songs). Songs will be presented each night at 22.00 (10 pm). We always aim for 50/50 female/male participation.

There is a fee for each participant: UK£ 290,-. All participants pay for their flights or transport to/from London Heathrow Airport. Everyone will stay in twin rooms with separate beds. Single rooms are unavailable, but we'll try to match pairs. 

Our shuttle will bring the participants from Heathrow Airport to the camp Monday night (leaving at 19:30 (7:30 pm) - arriving approx. 21:30 (9:30 pm)) and take them back to Heathrow Friday morning (leaving at 9:00 (9 am) - arriving approx. 11:00 (11 am). All participants can join the shuttle if they let us know in advance.
