Amy Biondo
Join me as I discuss the fascinating process of song creation with my longtime friend singer/songwriter Amy Biondo. Her brand new single is released TODAY 5.27.22 and is the culmination of many hours of creativity, expression, and craft before reaching out to me to collaborate as producer of this fabulous evolving 5:30 track. In this one hour episode, we focus on this song's entire evolution from inspirational idea, to completed first written draft, to recording a rough song demo, collaborating together to bring the song to life, recording live vocals & horns, arranging & production techniques, mixing & mastering, all the way to it's official launch today!
