Denver - Swallow Hill is pleased to present the Music in the Mountains Retreat, a four-day voice and performance retreat with vocal coaches Celeste Krenz and Rebecca Folsom, hit songwriter Sally Barris, singer/songwriter Diana Jones, performance coach Deedee Huntington, and vocal  coach/guitarist Mark Oblinger. This unique, hands-on retreat will be held in a facility in the beautiful mountains of Bailey, Colo.

Each afternoon participants will break into groups to rehearse and learn each others' songs for the evening's performance, providing a chance to not only have a band but to be a part of the band. There will be performance rounds with microphones and a P.A. system each night in addition to sessions during the morning and early afternoon. All meals and snacks are included, and there will be several camping areas, an 18-foot teepee, and some space for RVs. Camping is free. Bed and breakfast rooms are available in nearby cabins.

Space is limited so early registration is encouraged. There is also an early discount price of $455 if the registration is placed by June 25. After June 25, the price is raised to $475. A materials fee of $10 applies.
