Whether you want to become a songwriter because you have a passion for it or because you’re just in it to win it, there a few things you can do to make it out there in the big world.

During the podcast we talk songwriting, overcoming performance anxiety, putting on shows, applying for funding, collaborating with other artists, teaching, touring, illness, aspirations and ambitions, the collapse of capitalism, among many other things.

Chad Earnest joins me (Rebecca Cullen) & offers his advice to upcoming bands & artists regarding graphic design & video creation. We also talk the future of rock music, Slipknot’s mighty return, the rise of hip hop & the infamous rap diss from MGK to Eminem.

If you like pop music, you will have of course been introduced to some of the finest songs humankind has composed. In our opinion, however, these are the most elite pieces of art over the rest.

Creating lyric videos as one more piece of consumable content for your band can give any single the push it needs to crest a billboard chart. Cee-Lo Green’s F**k You was given the boost it needed by a (cheaply constructed) lyric video put together at the last second by a professional marketing team using a free editor.
