COURSE GOALS:
By the end of this course, you will gain the basic skills you need to:
- Effectively use both literal and figurative imagery.
- Make your story come to life using imagery.
- Prove your character’s personality using imagery.
- Make your listener connect to your character’s emotions using imagery.
- Hook your listener in the song’s first few lines using imagery.
-
And to begin more songs (more easily) using imagery exercises as the start of your songwriting process.
As we go through each section, I’ll provide hit songs as examples. And I’ll draw from a few different genres, too.
WHY YOUR SONGS NEED GREAT IMAGERY
What do “Live Like You Were Dying” (Tim McGraw), “The Good Stuff” (Kenny Chesney), “Before He Cheats” (Carrie Underwood), “I Drive Your Truck” (Lee Brice), and “The House That Built Me” (Miranda Lambert) all have in common?
That’s right. They were all #1 smash hits that took the artist’s career to another level. And they also made the songwriters a ton of money!
But what made these songs so popular? What made them have such a big impact on the listening public? Well, one major reason why these songs were so successful is the other thing they have in common:
INCREDIBLE IMAGERY.
Maybe you dream of writing songs that become as successful as the ones I just mentioned. But maybe you’re not getting the success with your writing that you dream of yet.
Do you struggle with adding fresh, compelling imagery to your songs? Do music business people keep saying, “show me, don’t tell me?” Or maybe your songs just aren’t getting much attention. You’re having trouble getting good cowrites, or you just feel that your lyrics are missing something.
Or maybe your lyrics are pretty solid. Maybe you even consider them your strength, but you’re still not getting the reaction you want. You want to take your skills to another level. You’re ready to break through.
Well, if either one of those situations sounds like yours, I’m glad you’re here. I want to help you take your songs to the next level. I want to help you take your career to the next level. I want to help you become the the kind of songwriter who has industry people quote your lyrics back to you. I want you to become the kind of songwriter who can stand in the back of a music venue (or on the stage of one) and hear the crowd singing your words. It’s an awesome feeling. I’ve had it, and I want you to have it, too.
If you want to write songs that get on records and radio and compete for the big money, you’re stepping into a very, very competitive business. There are only a few spots available on the album of a major artist. And there are only a few slots available on radio.
SMALL ADVANTAGES = BIG RESULTS
In a business this competitive, you need every advantage you can get. Small advantages can bring big results. Adding great images to your songs can give you that advantage. It can make you more attractive and valued as a cowriter. It can get you that second publisher meeting. It can make a record label go from “what else do you have” to “let me keep a copy of that.” Likewise, better imagery can take your song from “let me keep a copy of that” to “put that on hold- I want to play it for my artist.” Or maybe great imagery will even take your song from “I want to put that on hold” to “we want to record your song.”
Imagery might even make the difference between getting a $300 album cut or a $300,000 hit single.
In a business this competitive, the opposite is also true. Your song that’s being held for an artist might not get cut because they decide to record a song that’s just a little better. Or even if they do cut your song, they might single a different song instead. And the difference between an album cut and a hit single is huge. It’s not just a huge money difference, getting a hit single will boost your status and prestige much more than an album cut ever will.
SO... WHY SHOULD YOU LISTEN TO ME?
“Use Imagery To Supercharge Your Songwriting (Like The Pros Do)” is a course I put together from my experience as a professional lyricist and songwriter with over 10 years in the music business. I’ve had cuts by legendary artists such as Alan Jackson and Randy Travis. I’ve also had cuts by Lady Antebellum and Joe Nichols, among others. I’ve written a top 5 hit in the US and a #1 Single Of The Year in Canada.
A great image changed my life. The image of a “Monday Morning Church” led me to write the song that would become my first major cut and a top 5 hit for Alan Jackson. It took me from a day job where I was sitting at a computer all day, and it helped me land my first publishing deal- where I was able to write songs all day! I’ve seen the power of effective imagery, and I want you to see it in your life, too.
THINK ABOUT IT...
How much will it change your writing (and your writing career) to be able to do the things this course will teach you? To be able to make your story really come to life for your listeners? To make your characters more real, believable and memorable? To really connect with your listeners' emotions, and to hook them from the first few lines? And to have an easier time starting more songs? These skills are a game-changer!
SAVE TIME & MONEY!
This course will save you a lot of time, as I reveal techniques and thought-processes that took me years to develop and might take years for you to learn by trial and error. Years. Let that sink in for a moment.
And I want you to save money. Demoing a song that isn’t the best it can be is almost always a waste of money. One demo may cost you up to $800. And that’s just for ONE demo! I know that in my early years of chasing the songwriting dream, I wasted thousands of dollars recording songs that just weren’t ready yet. But you don’t have to waste all that time and money. You can start writing better songs today.
HOW WOULD IT FEEL?
How would it feel to give an artist a “little white tank top” line like in Dierks Bentley’s, “What Was I Thinking?” Not only did that song change Dierks‘ life, it changed how girls dressed at his concerts! Or maybe you want to break someone’s heart with a line like “Turn down the lights, turn down the bed, turn down these voices inside my head” from “I Can’t Make You Love Me” by Bonnie Raitt. Or maybe you want to give your friends something to sing along with like Jimmy Buffett’s “lost shaker of salt” line from “Margaritaville.”
