Your Songwriting Coach
I’ve been studying hit songs for over 20 years. You can read 50+ of my Hit Song Guides on my Songwriting Tips & Inspiration website. In addition, I’ve been a record label executive, Film & TV songwriter with hundreds of credits, a music producer, and a working songwriter for my entire career.
My books—Shortcuts to Hit Songwriting and Shortcuts to Songwriting for Film & TV— have been used to teach the craft of songwriting at Musician’s Institute, Belmont University, and many more schools around the world.
Through TAXI.com, an Independent A&R company, I trained hit songwriters and music industry professionals to give feedback to thousands of aspiring and successful songwriters. Over the years, I learned that many hit songwriters can’t really explain how they do it. So, I dug down to see if I could find some answers. I’ve gathered tons of information and poured it into my books and websites. Have a look around and then get started on your hit songs!
