ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
A podcast series celebrating the sparks that ignite, the events that inspire, and the songwriters that create. Have you ever wondered about the genesis of a particular song? Many incredible tunes come from the heart, from pain,yearning, love, anxiety, joy or sorrow, and often the writer is channeling feelings of someone else. But there are songs sparked by personal experiences that could be incidental or profound, hilarious or heart aching. We’ll focus on the songs that are inspired by real life with those who simply could not resist creating musical imagery to bring the listener into their world. Each interview with the song’s creator will delve into the spark of the idea, through the development of the composition, to a final work of art.
