| 19 Jan 2022 | Introducing How Songs Are Made | 00:01:14 | |
Hello! I'm Trey Xavier, you may know me from my YouTube channel Gears Gods or my band In Virtue. I'd like to introduce you to How Songs Are Made. And on this show, I’ll be talking to notable musical artists to learn about their songwriting process, how it is that they go from a seed of an idea to a full-blown song arrangement, and all the steps in between. If you’re in a band or you want to write songs more seriously, this show is for you! I’m here to bring the songwriting wisdom of the masters of the craft to you directly, and to get the most usable advice from them to make you the most effective songwriter you can be. There are some other podcasts out there about songwriting, but this is the only one focused on finding out the HOW - the real techniques and creative process that real successful songwriters use to write their best songs.
