Same Same or Different?

Picture
Out with the old variant and in with the new, the pandemic continues to challenge both music makers and supporters.
 
With an eye-watering drop in live music performance/physical sales and a hockey stick up-tick in streaming, how music reaches us changed in a heartbeat.
 
Same for songwriters with lockdowns and border closures making digital collaboration and remote working par for the course.
 
Some songwriters found they responded well finding new creativity at home while others missed the in-person snap-crackle-pop of studio sessions. Whatever the scenario, every one’s routine sure had a shake up!
 
The start of a new year in this complex ever-changing environment raises the question of how will you approach your own songwriting in 2022. Is it something you’d like to foster or perhaps you’re not sure about where to next?
 
One of the most common challenges songwriters have raised in Reddit is how to keep writing regularly when you’re working full time at a ‘soul sucking job’.
 
Here’s something to think about.  Consider committing to your songwriting by signing up for Songwriting School – with an online real time session once a week.
 
If you’ve wanted to pursue your songwriting but find it hard to keep motivated, regular weekly online classes in real time really help. How do I know?

Songwriting School has been running for a whole year now and various members have had all the things of life, let along COVID to deal with – illness, travel, busy as jobs, changing jobs, no job, death of a parent, moving house – and they were still able to continue with songwriting, as part of their lives. Not perfect, but not stopping.
 
Here’s what they said.
 
‘The weekly deliverables has really helped me to lighten up on the perfectionism and just work at the songs. This course gives me a sense of living a creative life because I'm actually writing not just thinking about writing.’
 
‘I have built up a resource of songs like I've never had before.’
 
‘The class has been great, I have enjoyed it thoroughly. I have really liked getting the opportunity to meet other people who are much more experienced in song writing. Delivery on Zoom has certainly been perfect for COVID year, and perfect to allow us to have a class with someone who is in a different place and if we are in a different place.’
 
‘I have loved song writing school more than I dreamed I would. I have learnt heaps yet feel I just scratched the surface. I am excited about where my music creativity is going. It has brought a new dimension to my guitar playing. I am looking forward to next year so much.’
 
‘I love the genuine delivery, fucks and all. Thank you so much.’
 
With Songwriting School, you get accountability, good content and supportive online interaction with other students/tutors in a private forum. It’s the Goldilocks recipe – not too much - not too little - just right! 
 
If you think this might be right for you, you're welcome to call me or email now to arrange a free consultation. I'm on 021 685561. 

best wishes
