How to write authentic lyrics with Garreth Spinn Eps #23
Manage episode 311921591 series 3202199
Hi Ohana,
today I have the singer/songwriter & producer Garreth Spinn (g.spinn) with me today.
He told me his story of his best trade ever which involves Harry Potter books and his sister. Why he started producing after he's been writing songs for a while and how important networking is.
We had a chat about actually wanting to be the worst musician in the room and what makes a good song. Garreth shared with me the number one thing he starts with now when he produces or mixes a song now which might go against most production "tricks", but most importantly we talked about writing about lyrics you're nervous to share and why that's important. In the end, we also talked about how ambient music is used in commercial music without us even noticing and how that can help you in your next songs to level up your songwriting game.
Of course, we talked about the production side of Stop | Stand with Jeremiah Higgens which Garreth produced, and his new single "The Only Thing". If you missed the episode with Jeremiah Higgens you can find it here to catch up here.
Have fun!
