About our Beneficiary:
Soldier Songs & Voices is a nonprofit organization that provides free instruments and songwriting lessons to veterans as a form of post-conflict care. Through music education and community-based outreach, we provide veterans with tools to turn their stories into songs so the nation can hear their voices. Our goal is to create communities that honor veterans of all generations.
We do not just support veterans--we invest in them.
The Reveille Retreat is designed to connect both active duty and veterans of our Armed Services with nationally acclaimed songwriters and performers to assist participants in transforming their life and military experiences into song. The Reveille Retreat is held at the beautiful TR Ranch in Hallettsville, Texas which is centrally located between Austin, San Antonio and Houston. The TR Ranch is a working cattle ranch which also hosts the Songwriter Serenade and the Live Oak Fiddle Camp. The ranch provides lodging, food and beverage service, workshop facilities, a performance venue and a recording studio for the participants.
