Writing with Women

I have been writing songs for a while now…on my own, or always with men. I recently took a trip to Nashville, and had two co-writing sessions with amazing women. It was such a crazy experience—to walk into a room with a stranger, and in two hours complete a song from the heart. I was a little nervous, but it went really smoothly. I connected with these talented ladies right away. It opened my eyes to a whole new way to write music, a new camaraderie. I’ve always had such great friendships with women, and now being able to write with my fellow ladies that share many of the same experiences as I’ve had is incredibly fulfilling.

I am now working on a bunch of new songs with one of my best friends, Bevin Hamilton. (Check out her myspace!) We grew up together in Kansas, so needless to say we understand each other. To write with a woman I know so well and feel so comfortable with is yet another new, exciting adventure. But hey, I still got all the love in the world for the gents in my life. I’m just sayin', thank god I finally figured out I should write with the ladies too!
