Why work with a producer? with Braeden Mitchell

Braeden Mitchell returned to Song Talk Radio for his third visit and contributed to a very lively and informative discussion of songwriting and recording. He shared two songs with us,  Glory Days and Everyday Girl, both from his upcoming EP release. We talked about:

• moving from a pop-rock sound to a folk-country style
• a producer’s influence on approach, arrangements, structure, and more
• why perform songs in a club to “test-drive” them before recording
• how co-writing helps create a better song
• working with Oh Susanna
• how to meet other song writers (at shows just say, “hello, I loved your song”)
• Braeden’s upcoming EP release show at the Dakota Tavern
• Murphy’s Law’s of Songwriting
