This is what a day in the woods actually looks like.

No performance. No pressure. Just a group of people in beautiful woodland, making music together for the first time.

The pilot scored an NPS of 96. Every single person who came said they'd return.

Two dates in July. £85. soundinthewoods.com/eventsbookings

Sound in the Woods is not a retreat. You don't need to go away for a week, arrange childcare, or book a hotel. It doesn't ask you to adopt a practice or do any research. It lasts one day. You drive home the same evening.

It's not a workshop. Nothing is taught and you won't leave with an action plan.

And it's not therapy. You won't be asked to explain yourself or name your feelings in front of strangers.

What it is: a full day in beautiful, quiet woodland making music with other people. Food, fire, professional musicians. No experience needed. No performance. No pressure.

You'll feel different afterwards. For weeks.

Two dates in July at White Ennox Woods near Box, Wiltshire. £85 a ticket.

Sound in the Woods is a day-long creative group music-making experience set in beautiful natural spaces that is designed to help people disconnect from the daily grind and reconnect with themselves, nature, and others through music making and nature immersion.

You don't need to be musical to spend a day making music.

That's not a reassuring line - it's how the day actually works. Nobody is auditioning. Nobody is performing. The musicians leading the day are professionals, and their job is to create the conditions for everyone to make something, wherever they're starting from.

Every single person who came to our pilot made music. Some of them hadn't touched an instrument since school.

If you're curious, that's enough.

4 free places left for 13 June - and I'd love to fill them with the right people.

Sound in the Woods is a full day in beautiful woodland making music with other people. No experience needed. No performance. Just a genuinely different kind of day - with food, professional musicians, and quiet woods.

It's free on 13 June. All I ask is that you come with an open mind and share what you honestly thought afterwards.

Message me if you're interested, or tag someone who needs a day like this.

“Happiness is only real when shared.” - Christopher McCandless

In today’s world, the path of least resistance leads us toward greater isolation and individualism. But humans are hardwired to thrive only when we find genuine connection.

It feels like we've got to a point where, sadly, connection itself feels like an act of resistance. To nourish and cultivate this vital part of our wellbeing, we now need to be much more deliberate and intentional in seeking meaningful connection.

The moments like a smile at the bus stop, a chat with a delivery driver, casual office banter are great, but they’re not the deep connection we crave.

I created Sound in the Woods as a space for genuine, deep, and authentic connection. It's what humans have been doing for far longer than we have been speaking to each other. So we don't use words to connect. We use something much older. Creating sound and rhythm together in nature connects people in a way that transcends words. The music we make is beautiful. But not the way that we have come to define beauty (i.e. perfection), but because it’s a truly authentic expression of the experience of connection that happens in our sessions. Much more natural, you might say.

If you ask me what Sound in the Woods is about, it's this: connection, with yourself, with nature, and with others.

Next time you’re on a crowded train or at a conference, think about how much richer it would be if you were in the woods, connecting for real.

Out yesterday morning in the warm sunshine. Thought I’d share a bit of the music we recorded on the last Sound in the Woods day.
