Who are the “Masters of the Craft” that will be training?
We are proud to announce that we expect to reassemble our very knowledgeable and talented crew of in-house experts and instructors as staff for the IGC, These VIP, "Masters of the Craft" instructors will be offering subject specific classes over multiple days and will be on-site and accessible over the course of the event. These inspirational instructors will of course include Neil Hogan, Dave Nachmanoff, Doug Young, vocal master Jim Bruno, and flatpicking virtuoso Mike Mullins.
Will there be anything else?
Well, of course there will be. As we continue to reach out to others, we will be announcing possible special guest instructors, songwriters, music business professionals and other VIPs who will join us. Really, who knows what else we may conjure up?

Don’t forget the FOOD!
The food being presented at the IGC could be an event by itself. The IGC Fall Camp will include cooked meals from Monday evening through Friday morning prepared by the talented chefs at the Green Mountain Retreat. You'll enjoy an authentic taste of California's Central Coast from their fresh, sustainable menu. At its heart is the simple use of quality local ingredients such as beef, fish, vegetables, fruits, cheeses and salads prepared with delicate seasoning, and with attention to sourcing from regional farmers, ranchers and fishermen. They have no problems accommodating most dietary requests or restrictions.
