Songwriters In Paradise began in 2013 when singer-songwriter Patrick Davis invited a small group of his closest songwriter friends to the Bahamas for a weekend of music, libations, and storytelling.

What started as an intimate gathering among friends quickly became one of the most unique music experiences in the world.

Today, SIP hosts curated events in Healdsburg, Napa Valley, Cabo and Bourbon Trail.

Every SIP experience is intentionally intimate. World-class songwriters take the stage together in an "in-the-round" format, sharing the stories behind the songs, and performing in a setting that feels more like a private gathering than a traditional concert.

Over the years, SIP has welcomed Grammy Award–winning writers, legendary hitmakers, and emerging artists—all performing just a few feet away from guests.

While each destination offers its own atmosphere and setting, the spirit of SIP remains the same:

Incredible music.

World class bourbon.

Stunning backdrops.

Welcome to SIP Bourbon Trail.
