Drew from Jake Swamp & the Pine joined me in-studio to give our listeners a preview of the show coming up at The Parlor Room on October 17. We began with the first of four live songs called “Drive, Drive, Drive”. Our discussion covered song-writing in all it’s aspects; scheduling, inspiration, editing, writer’s block and song-writing prompts. Drew gave his perspective on the state of the “music business” especially from his experience a few years into the process. We also talk about music videos and cider donuts! All among stripped down versions of his songs including “Yellow”, “Go By Darkness” and “Heidi Klum”.

The Parlor Room show will be a full band show with drums, bass, and even pedal steel in addition to Drew on acoustic guitar and vocals. Details at ParlorRoom.org

Friday night in Northampton, October 17.
