    uniE603 Human
    I started working with this artist, May Kravitz, originally from Jerusalem, but living in New York before Covid. Her life experiences were much different than mine as was her use of the english language. The writing relationship had to be built on trust and it took me a while to get that from her. Hew voice was perfect, disarming and unique, and that was the whole point of the project to me. The task was always writing lines that she would speak-out, during the process, and finessing them into lines, with words, that would sing-out with beauty, without losing the jagged passion that was important to her. music vocal voice tone songwriters producer…
    uniE603 It's like flying down a hill with no brakes!
    This is one of many songs I've written with Sin+. The band is from Italy, based in Sweden. They're a great live band and a lot of fun to work with. We write on Zoom. They always send a basic working demo of the track with a melody the morning of the write. I sit with them in real time, analyze the melody and phrasing to a fine point. We begin discussing what the track and melody suggest emotionally. I start throwing out lyric ideas as we listen, until they hear something they like. We usually don't know what the title is until we get there. It's an adventurous way to write but it works with us as a unit. It's like flying down a hill with no brakes, and hoping there's a soft place to land somewhere at the bottom! music creative wildride greatband…
    uniE603 A classic Nashville writing session.
    This was a classic Nashville type of writing session. Grace West is the artist. Grace, Keesy Timmer and I have a standing write once per month. We get in my studio and start bouncing around different ideas until Grace likes one, then we settle in and start writing. We don't bother with beats, loops or tracks for this kind of session, we just grab a couple of guitars and we're good. By the end of the write, Grace has learned the guitar part and sets it into a groove that she feels and I record it right then. Then we cut a vocal and from that I have all I need to produce the single. vocal greatsinger songwriters producer…
    uniE603 Quirky cool, SheTheArcher!
    The first song is called, "Hate You Less" and I co-wrote with the artist, SheTheArcher. We wrote the song over Zoom, Nashville to Canada. I played the acoustic part, added percussion, then sent it to her to add another acoustic part and sing the vocals. I arranged the vocals and then built and played the rest of the track to the full production. record artist songwriter co-writer producer…
