When Stuart Klinger told me about his summer songwriting collectives, it sounded like it would be awesome! The best kind of summer camp, in my opinion. Kids get together and spend the first week writing songs and the 2nd week recording them with a grand finale at a NYC venue! How cool would that have been to your 12 year old rockstar self? So cool! So very, very, very cool.
I met up with the first session about 3/4’s of the way through recording. While certain kids laid down their tracks or overdubs, others were creating artwork for the album…which was going to be released the NEXT DAY! Who has a turn around like that? The Bandwriting Collective does. Check out their site HERE! 6 completed songs, from start to finish in two weeks. I am very impressed with the program that Stuart heads with Jesse Krakow, Bill Gerstel, Mathew Baram, and Matt Gill.
. The kids came to work and I left with several tunes stuck happily in my head and I was only hearing bits and pieces of the songs. I’ve still got “She Told Me Not to Do It” running through my head.
