Are they really the same thing?
Today, many artists write, record, produce, upload, perform and promote their own songs โ but does that automatically make them professional songwriters?
And where does that leave the traditional songwriter who writes songs for OTHER artists?
In this eye-opening workshop, award-winning songwriter and mentor Jacques M. Gentil explores the often misunderstood difference between:
โข Singer-songwriters
โข Professional songwriters
โข Recording artists
โข Producers
โข Topliners
โข Lyricists
โข Commercial writers
Weโll discuss:
๐ค Writing for yourself vs writing for the industry
๐ค Why some great singers are weak songwriters
๐ค Why many successful songwriters never perform publicly
๐ค Collaboration in modern songwriting
๐ค The rise of the independent artist
๐ค The difference between โperforming songsโ and โcrafting songsโ
๐ค How the music business sees these roles
๐ค Why this distinction matters more than ever today
Whether you are:
โข an aspiring songwriter,
โข an indie artist,
โข a singer-songwriter,
โข or simply curious about how the industry really worksโฆ
โฆthis session will challenge the way you think about songwriting.
