Introduction
I was more active in songwriting in the past (although I never had anything published or recorded). I recenlty started playing with it again, and I'd like to see what I can do. My occupation is a writer, but in an area far removed from songwriting.
What types of music do you play? What would you like to get from this group?
Mainly acoustic guitar-based, pop and light rock songs with an emphasis on lyrics. I'm weak on catchy melodies and I'm not a musician, so I'd especially like to improve in those areas.
Which Musical instruments do you play? Are you a singer?
Acoustic guitar; used to play piano, too. I'm comfortable singing my own songs, but I've never really performed.
Would you like to collaborate? If so, how?
It would be interesting to experience collaboration and learn something from the process. Because I feel my lyric writing is stronger than my ability to write melodies, it might be nice to work with someone who needs a lyricist.
How do you think you could most help other songwriters in the MeetUp group?
I can try and explain how I craft a lyric. It's important to me that a song says something well and does not relay on the music to carry the song.
Please provide link to samples of your music (Soundcloud, Reverbnation, etc...).
I'm hoping that through this group there might eventually be a place to hear my songs, but as of now, you'd have to request a live performance or settle for a few poorly recorded tapes that have been transfered to MP3s.
