QUOTES
"The Bali Songwriters Invitational was a pivotal moment in my music career. I made the most amazing friends and learnt so much, I feel truly honoured to have been a part of such an incredible event."
-Grammy Winning songwriter/producer M Phazes
"The Bali Songwriting Invitational was truly one of the most wonderful experiences in my musical career, and perhaps my life in general. Peter and Mike do an exceptional job of finding the greatest blend of talent for the retreat, but more importantly understand that a group dynamic is almost more essential for songwriting camps of this nature. They carefully blend a group of strangers and put them in middle of paradise, creating what is by the end of week, a new family. I love everyone I met on this retreat, and the talent was just staggering."
- Multiplatinum songwriter and Artist, Greg Holden
"Thank you so much for one of the best experiences of my life!! I absolutely loved being in Bali and am honoured to have been included in such an incredibly inspiring and talented group. All those 'summer camp as a kid' feelings came back to me. Really felt part of something very special and important. There was a very personal energy in the air which made this trip something very special. I can't thank you enough Peter, the trip was filled with 'pinch myself' moments."
- Gary Go
"The Bali Songwriting Invitational 2012 was by far the best writing camp I have ever attended! The artists, producers and writers were amazing and the combinations were well thought out and successful. The environment was so inspiring. I did some of my best work there. I would definitely attend if invited back and I have been raving about it to all of my colleagues."
- Golden Globe winning songwriter, Julie Frost
"...the results were nothing short of a miracle. That’s exactly what happened in Bali. I am personally honoured to have been part of one of the most magical experiences of my life. I Will Be Back!”
- Five time Grammy Nominated songwriter, Herbie Crichlow
"The Bali Songwriting Invitational is like nothing else I've experienced in my time as a musician and songwriter. It provides a truly unique environment in which nothing else is important except crafting the best song possible. I've never been around so many people with blinding talent, in a space where everyone is equal, and the Bintang is bountiful. It's like a crash course in ‘How To Be Awesome at Music/Life.’ I learned more in ten days than I've learned in the last two years. I'm not even kidding."
- Multiple ARIA winning Artist, Megan Washington
"To be surrounded by so many talented people, and then have the opportunity to create music with them was truly awesome. I made some friendships I'm sure will continue for years to come and the whole week was one of the best experiences of my life."
- KLP (Kristy Lee Peters)
"A career changing experience"
- Brian McFadden (Westlife)
