Two young musicians have taken it upon themselves to write a new song from scratch every week, then to share their songs with each other and the world. Each episode, Roger Heathers and Declan Kitchener deconstruct the theory and process of writing music, then probably go off topic to talk about how amazing the Beatles are or something.
If you'd like to share your song that you wrote in a week with us, or perhaps join us as a guest, then get in touch with us via our e-mail address weeklysongpodcast@gmail.com.

EP161: They're Sunday Chords (Music | Songwriting)
Hey hey!
We're back with the first episode of Season 18.
Declan brings 'Not Enough' to the show after Roger shares 'Wake Up'. As always these two songs were written in seven days and discussed on the podcast.
In today's episode we talk about how we develop lyrics, how major seventh chords can help change the mood, and how a song's tempo can change despite our best intentions.
Also, we're on YouTube now! We're officially a video podcast and can be seen via the link below.

Cool to listen to other songwriters’ process
I’m a songwriter myself and I think it’s really cool to listen to you guys go through your process of writing.
