In this episode, I’m thrilled to feature a conversation with the incredibly prolific songwriter and musician, Toby Gad.
Toby has had an extraordinary career, known for his exceptional ability to craft songs that become global sensations for the likes of Beyonce, John Legend, Donna Summer and so many more. His talent for writing hits that resonate across cultures and genres has solidified his place as a powerhouse in the music industry.
I had the opportunity to sit down with Toby, and our conversation was nothing short of fascinating. We delved into his formative years, exploring how his upbringing and school experiences shaped his musical journey. Toby shared stories from his early days, reflecting on the vibrant club scenes that influenced his sound and the records that left an indelible mark on his creative process.
But our chat went far beyond just reminiscing. Toby opened up about his songwriting craft—how he approaches the daunting task of creating music that not only captures the zeitgeist but also stands the test of time. We discussed the nuances of writing global hits, the challenges, the inspirations, and the moments of serendipity that have led to some of his most well-known songs. Whether you’re an aspiring musician or just a fan of great music, Toby’s insights into the art of songwriting are sure to captivate you.
