Scheffy's Songwriting System

Even if you've never played one note of music, I can show you how to start writing your own songs, immediately!

I use techniques that not only helped me get started but continue to give me the inspiration to keep creating.

With this course you will never face the blank page again!

Radio Ready Vocals

The course that started it all off! A deep dive into how I recorded vocals for some of Chicago's biggest hit singles

When I got my big break in 1985 I thought there was no way it was going to work out.

But learning these concepts and executing them I went on to create half of Chicago's biggest hits of the 80s.

''I've been writing songs since the 90s so I thought Jason's program was just for beginners. I was very wrong. I actually learned a lot. Just using his method I was able to come up with a song, very fast''

Loney Childress

''I had a really good time taking the course. You don't get a better pair of ears than Jason Scheff and I highly recommend it''

Bill Fleck

''This course taught you a strategy for completing a song by simplifying the songwriting process while not restricting you in any way. Everybody got the same instructions but the songs all came out different.''

About me

I joined the band "Chicago" in 1985 at the peak of their hitmaking success replacing the iconic Peter Cetera as the new lead vocalist. We scored the first hit featuring my voice on "Will You Still Love Me". We went on to have several more of Chicago's biggest hit singles including my composition "What Kind Of Man Would I Be" and Billboard Magazine's 1989 Song of the Year "Look Away".

Commonly asked questions

Do I need to know music already?

Absolutely not! My courses are designed to take someone who has never made music before in their life and be able to do it. Although, I've been told by seasoned pros they learn a LOT with my programs!

What if I don't want to learn music, just want to listen?

I have what I call the "Street Team" here. It's a free fan level membership. Get all the latest info on my touring schedules as well as a peek into music I'm working on. This is all included in the Academy, of course, but if you don't want to learn music, join the street team!

Are there any live events?

Yes, there are monthly private Q&A sessions included in the Academy as well as periodic live workshops on various music education programs.

Do you offer a money back guarantee?

I actually do better than that! I let you try before you buy. Just take the free 14 day trial and see if the Academy is for you. If not, no worries! You don't pay a dime. Nothing to lose.
