This podcast dives deep into the art and craft of songwriting - through honest conversations about how songs get written, how songwriters think, and the questions that emerge when you commit to making creative work.  We’ve been friends for over 20 years and through all that time, despite the many different career paths we’ve headed down, music and songwriting is what what we keep coming back to - the common thread in our friendship - and our passion for it has only grown in recent times, mainly because of the work we do with songwriters around the world, weekly sessions with our beloved community members and of course, continuing to help songwriters of all levels through our YouTube channel, ‘How To Write Songs’

    You Either Have It or You Don't... Right?

    If we’re honest with ourselves, we all wonder from time to time just how much talent we have, how much natural ability we've been endowed with. But how much does talent really matter? And when we say you either have 'it' or you don't, what is that 'it' really referring to? In this, our very first episode, we tackle one of the most persistent and controversial topics in the world of songwriting and music making. We candidly discuss why this debate continues to rage and more importantly, we offer some practical ways to develop your skills and mindset as a songwriter, regardless of how much natural talent you may or may not have.
