    Songstuff Writer and Artist Development Challenges

    By john

    Independent writers and artists face several large disadvantages when they are compared to signed, mainstream writers and artists.  Disadvantages that add up to making it a competition that indies can’t win. Hell they can’t even compete.   Lack of budget and poor contacts are fairly obvious disadvantages. Lack of experience and a lack of knowledge restricts songwriters and artists alike. Lack of an overall strategy, and a limited set of incomplete tactics, makes for a critical problem

Been A While

been a while since i posted in my blog (shame on me), i figured it was about time. while i'm here i'll ask a question: how much of your music is your own personal therapy? ok maybe one more : how much of yourself, your feelings, do you put into your songs? i ask cos i always put a lot of my personal feelings in my work. i lay it on the line. put myself out there. when i look around most writing is about either non-emotive issues, or at least not challenging in any

A Six-step Plan?

Back in Cascade Locks… The job interview went pretty well—prompting the question what I’d do about music promotion way out there in John Day, Oregon. You can tell it’s very isolated; the stores are all way bigger than a town of 1900 people needs, indicating the town serves as a market center for a huge hinterland. Any place that’s bigger is several six-packs away, as they say. So—I arrive in town, knowing absolutely nobody except the city manager, who’s going to be my boss. I’m living o

Three Songs?

STUCK in Garibaldi for a few more days—the van died on the way out of town, and the local mechanic has to figure out why. I haven’t a clue, and at this point, he doesn’t, either. Hopefully, it is neither time-consuming nor expensive. I will accordingly write and post the blog from here, using my wife’s computer. I do not know how long it will take for things to get back to normal (not that I have any clear idea what “normal” is). A COUPLE MORE NEW SONGS: That makes three in the space of a w

Feeder 28/05/2008

Feeder 28/05/2008 It was nice to return to The Point after all these gigs in the Carling Academy. It's a much nicer feeling venue, even if there isn't a nice cooling breeze... Sadly The Point's neighbours have been complaining about the noise (and apparently they are the new residents, moved in since it's been a gig venue) and so it was threatened with closure, luckily it seems they will just have to sound proof the building properly by a certain time (possibly August...). It would be a

Blown Right Outta' The Water

Sleepy Hollow

Based Off the legend of Sleepy Hollow and the Headless Horseman legends in the sorrow myths lie somewhat hollow dont find yourself being abit dosy or youll find yourself in a coffin, nice and cosy blood trail forward, three victims back carry your heads in a pumpkin sack sweep a glance through the hollow where those sleepy heads will releuctantly follow day dreamers will pay the price tommorow sweep with the sword, your neck might get wet another brain in the sack

Remains To Be Scene

Why should anyone change just because their different? She Doesnt, She Remains To Be Scene The kids got a stereotype going round The way she dresses is nowhere to be found Its not usual but its her ground Just how she wants to be Cause she remains to be scene Remains to be scene Storms through the corridors like some kind of queen Rocks every hallway with the way she's seen Everyone's looking for releif But shes still without a care Even with those pink highlights in

One And Only

Intended To Be Gentle With An Acoustic Guitar. The day's great The sun will meet its fate It's daily rise and nightly fall To one side then mabey another Church bell makes its melodic call At twilight where you used to sit with her One and lonely, only of late One and only Misses me One and lonely Wishes it could be More then only One and lonely Horizon greeted with a warm welcome Enough to warm those who feel numb Nothing comes as easy as this It's suc

Holding On To Not Much Left.

This Ones More Of A Poem, No Chorus Has Been Added Yet. The war's began and my daddy left me Told me to hold on to what's not a mystery Confusing at first but it took a tragedie To realise in this world there's much more to see Then every damn disaster we wrote in history Every secret of the world once held in a book Printed in blood with our heads messed like what the f*ck Inside quotes of disaster for your eyes only Creates a new perspective from the young and lonely

Terrorvision 23/05/2008

Terrorvision 23/05/2008 Right, this was at the Carling Academy in Bristol again (the last there for the foreseeable future) and because of the venues silly curfews (I think I might rant about that soon, maybe even at the end of this glog...) it opened at 18:30 to finish for 21:45(!). The support slot started at 19:00 and was taken care of by The Sound Explosion. These guys were great! You know all those 'how to make your band successful' advice things? They had it all down to a T! Fr

THE ALBUM: Skip’s in—he wants his song on the album. He wants me to handle the publishing, so I guess this is where Joe Becomes a Music Publisher. ASCAP, I think, since they’re a co-op and BMI isn’t; I’ll tell Skip he needs to join ASCAP as a writer (I do, too) so Joe Publisher doesn’t have to take out memberships in two PROs. I have a little “pocket” consulting firm, Outside Services Ltd. (the logo is an outhouse), that I’ll use as the “shell” for the publishing company—applying Occam’s Raz
