SONG WRITING AND FINISHING MODE

Settled in on the New South Wales Mid North Coast and time to get back to the main game … songwriting. Although having some success with songs in the “music biz” is great it’s the process that is the most invigorating. Waiting for the inspiration or ideas to be presented, then putting lyrics to song format, waiting for or finding the right sound or collaborating with others, nutting it out, polishing and then practicing to performance level. Sometimes the process explodes in a couple hours other times it may take months till it all comes together … but it is always cooking in my head.

Some new titles in one stage of the process or another:

THE DAY THEY PAVED THE CAR PARK AT POINT PANIC

RIGHT OF DENIAL (COLLABORATION)

TEARS FOR YEARS

AS THE DRUMS PLAYED

WHAT’S WRONG WITH THE AIR

ZITORADJA ZITORADJA

WALLS BETWEEN US (COLLABORATION)

TRADING KINGS AND QUEENS

ZIG ZAG TIMES

to name a few. Eventually they will be finished (if not already) played live, recorded and be ready for any opportunities that might suit a particular song. The process of songwriting will continue … there is just so much material out there in the world and “there’s a song in that”.
