Jen and Scott Smith of Naked Blue will take aspiring songwriters on a journey through what it takes to create consistent, quality songs in this four part series July 9, 23, August 6, 20. Most of us assume that all it takes to write a great song is a few chords, a melody, and emotional inspiration. Every once in a while a song is written that way. But for those who would like to build a body of work, a song catalog or a career in songwriting, knowing the craft is critical to cranking out consistently good songs and will allow you to finish your songs faster and identify precisely what needs improvement.
August 20 | SESSION 4: Enhance Your Performance, Enhance Your Song
The final test of a song is in its performance. Often we don’t find out until we’re recording in the studio that we’ve written ourselves into a corner, vocally or instrumentally. The last workshop will focus on the final re-writes and adjustments to dovetail a great song with an outstanding performance.
