I'm fascinated with songwriting and how songs are built from the ground up. It's easy to hear a full production song on the radio and dismiss its origin story.
I want to hear the rough draft of the song or the worktape. I want to explore the very beginning of how songs that move us and make us move are born.
I’ve been writing songs and making music for most of my life so it was a no brainer to create a show that explores one of my passions by interviewing experts in their craft.
