INSIDE SONGWRITING: Getting to the Heart of Creativity
(Billboard Books) |
|
|
An "insider’s" look
at the business and the art of songwriting, INSIDE SONGWRITING:
Getting to the Heart of Creativity includes rare insight into the
creative process from both sides of the desk. The book includes
behind-the-scenes glimpses of the author’s working with artists
including Britney Spears, the Backstreet Boys, and Melissa
Manchester, as well as innovative exercises designed to stimulate
creativity. Dubbed a songwriter’s
version of Natalie Goldberg’s million-selling "Writing Down the
Bones," INSIDE SONGWRITING offers encouragement, comfort, and hope
in its richly detailed, no-holds-barred account of the author’s
long, and often difficult climb to the top of his
profession. INSIDE SONGWRITING is
packed with lessons and valuable information but it is not a
"How-To" book. It's anecdotal and offers a look inside the world of
professional songwriting. Topics include: Staff Writing, Songs that are "Better Than the
Crap on the Radio," Writing From Your heart , Targeting Your Market, Producing Great
Demos, Rewriting,Independent Song Pluggers, Overcoming Writer's
Block, Collaboration, Reversion Clauses, and much more about CREATIVITY --
as opposed to the "nuts and bolts" of how to craft a
song. Also
includes twenty stimulating new creative exercises. |

The Way I Heard It |
|
|
I've been fortunate
enough to have some of the most talented and successful artists in
the world record my songs. They've done incredible jobs
interpreting my words and melodies and making them their
own. "The Way I Heard
It" is my chance to express my personal vision for these
songs. I've assembled some of Nashville's finest musicians to help
me record this album. Their credits read like a "Who's Who" in pop
and country music and they've helped me create the album I always
hoped to record. "The Way I Heard It"
includes my interpretation of my Top 5 country single, "Change My
Mind," as well as songs that have been recorded by artists
including the Backstreet Boys, Collin Raye, and the Oak Ridge
Boys. This CD is available
only from my website and at my performances and workshops. I hope
you'll enjoy it |
