5 songwriters I’m doing unpaid PR for ✨ 
Because I fear we’re not making nearly enough fuss about people who can actually WRITE a song.
I’m talking about the kind of writing where one seemingly insignificant detail can tell an entire story, and a three-minute song can have you questioning every decision you’ve ever made.
Anyway, I’ve appointed myself head of publicity. Nobody asked. #singersongwriter #songwriter 

There’s a reason her name keeps appearing in other people’s songwriting credits.
She has this brilliant ability to make clever, meticulously written songs feel completely effortless. The wit of Mary Jane & Chardonnay, the warmth of Tried & True, the vulnerability of The Moon.
She can make something feel nostalgic while you’re still living it, which is a frankly ridiculous skill to possess.
And the fact she’s writing for other artists AND releasing her own music? Greedy, really. Leave some talent for the rest of Nashville.

This man could write about a supermarket car park and somehow turn it into a commentary on the human condition.
His writing is witty, observant, occasionally cynical and so painfully self-aware. Clams Casino explores class, ambition and the guilt of wanting more, while Rockland County makes abandoning your big-city dreams sound simultaneously hilarious and devastating.
He has this knack for disguising an existential crisis as a massive, singalong rock song.
Basically, Bruce Springsteen for people having a minor identity crisis in the middle of Tesco.

What I love about Caitie’s writing is how much heart sits behind it.
Her earlier songs like Recover explore faith, shame, restoration and the possibility of starting again. And her newer independent music, released as Caitie Beasley, sees her writing more freely about love, life and everything in between.
There’s something especially lovely about an artist finding their own voice outside the expectations of a label or genre.
Good songwriting with actual substance AND the courage to do things your own way? I’m listening. Aggressively.

His grandfather gave him a journal when he was seven, and I fear the rest of us have been playing catch-up ever since.
What gets me about his writing is

Behind the scenes, fiddle day for “Magnolia Wind” with my pal @megmcree 🎻. This was a joy to make and I’m so glad you are all listening out there. The fact that we make these recordings and they make their way to thousands of people will never be lost on me. Grateful for it all ⚡️
