Irish songwriter and producer Andy White’s third series of This podcast is only temporary tells the story of the writing and recording of his latest album 'Good Luck I Hope You Make It'.
As in the first two series, going track by track through solo album ‘This garden is only temporary’ and the 'AT' album co-written with Tim Finn, every week Andy looks at how a song's layers of lyrics and music work together, how sometimes ideas appear as if by magic – and if not, inspiration can always be encouraged.
Andy plays excerpts from the master tapes and discusses process and influences, recording, playing and writing in a home studio. If you're thinking of making your own album, you might find a way of doing it here. Each episode ends with a different version of the song from the one you'll find on the released albums.
If the underlying theme of Series 1 is "How to make an album" and Series 2, "How to co-write an album", Series 3 might be all about going back to the beginning. As always, "If you want to express something but don't know how to express it—tell the truth. This is powerful."

Feels like Healing is a series of conversations between myself Al Lewis and individuals who have turned to creativity as a way of helping them heal.
Our need for healing is universal. However the reasons behind it can be oh so varied; a difficult childhood, a traumatic experience or perhaps a bereavement and our need to process grief.
My search for healing stems from the death of my Dad, who died when I was 21 from Multiple Sclerosis.
For over fifteen years I'd kept a quiet lid on my grief. However when it came to clearing out the last remaining boxes from my Dad's attic, that grief that I'd suppressed came rushing to the surface. It was then that I began to write songs about my Dad. Writing those songs was incredibly cathartic and I realised how useful creativity can be when confronted with the hardest parts of life.
I believe that hearing other people's stories can help us to process ours and that the act of being creative can help turn something seemingly hopeless and incomprehensible in to something beautiful and hopeful.
These conversations are here to provide solace and inspiration and to show you that healing can happen when we take our deepest pain and turn it into a work of art.

Welcome to the Song Saloon!
Hi, I'm Jordan Smith Reynolds. I'm an LA based singer-songwriter interviewing artists I admire. If you love discovering new music, listening to intimate live performances, and conversations exploring the creative process...you’ve come to the right place!
Each episode of the Song Saloon features an artist through the lens of a song. It starts with a live performance, followed by an interview with the songwriter about the featured song, and ends with the final recorded version.
There is ALWAYS more to a song than what's on the surface. Getting to peel back the layers through live performance and talking about the stories behind the songs never fails to leave me inspired and eager to write again!

Hello fellow songwriters, I’m Trey Xavier and this is the How Songs Are Made podcast. You may know me from the Gear Gods YouTube channel or my band In Virtue. And on this show, I’ll be talking to notable musical artists to learn about their songwriting process, how it is that they go from a seed of an idea to a full-blown song arrangement, and all the steps in between.
I’m here to bring the songwriting wisdom of the masters of the craft to you directly, and to get the most usable advice from them to make you the most effective songwriter you can be. There are some other podcasts out there about songwriting, but this is the only one focused on finding out the HOW - the real techniques and creative process that real successful songwriters use to write their best songs.
