Anti Social Camp — which calls itself the “largest songwriting camp in the world” — will take place from June 12-17, bringing together writers, producers and artists from around the world in New York City for 100 different sessions, shows and parties around the city.
The camp is billed as a global festival gathering for creatives with the goal to reinvigorate the New York City music scene. Founded by Danny Ross, a music maker and professor at BerkleeNYC, the camp started during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic with a group of music producers working together over Zoom to continue session work during lockdown. The camp will work with about 150 artists ranging from Andy Grammer, Moby, Walk The Moon, Grace VanderWaal, X Ambassadors, Cautious Clay and more.
Today, May 30, the camp has announced its official business partners for 2023, including Title Partner, Amuse; Presenting Partners The New York City Mayor’s Office of Media + Entertainment, YouTube Music, SESAC and Cloud Microphones; and Contributing Sponsors Sound Royalties, The Orchard Publishing, Amazon Music, Oeksound, BMI, Spotify, Topo Chico, HIFI, Hipgnosis Songs Fund, ABKCO Music & Records and The Recording Academy New York Chapter.
Plus, the camp will partner with the following venues and studios: The New School, Brooklyn Brewery, D’Angelico Guitars and Elsewhere, Invite Only Studios, You Too Can Woo, Platinum Sound Studios, Dimension 70, Flux Studios NYC, 343 Labs, The Bunker, Red Convertible Recording, Fever Dream Studios, Brukkout Productions, Synthia Studio and Kiara Studios.
Amazon Music will also be hosting writing sessions for artists, songwriters, and producers at their Brooklyn office throughout the week.
“Anti Social Camp celebrates the age of collaboration in pop music,” says Ross.
“We are pleased to partner once again with Anti Social Camp during NY Music Month, which showcases all the ways music contributes to our city’s economy and identity as a global creative capital,” adds Commissioner of the NYC Mayor’s Office of Media and Entertainment, Anne del Castillo.
