Behind The Scenes Video Series
Full Nashville Session: Co-Writing a New Song With a Collaborator
In this video series, I share my entire, start-to-finish process on camera, as I co-write a brand new song from scratch with a collaborator. In this session, we share and explain everything that we're doing and thinking in detail — every idea, decision, tool, and technique.
As we work, I’ll show you my approach to the following topic:
- How to find inspiration in the experiences and ideas of people around you
- How to encourage and bring out the best in collaborators
- How to actively listen to and build on someone else's creative vision
- How to play to your own strengths and understand and amplify the strengths of others.
- How to write compelling lyrics and effective melodies
- And how to bring the Nashville Approach to Songwriting into a collaboration.
I hope you can take some of what you see and learn into your future collaborations!
