Mumble and Peg: Songwriting Beyond Singing with Summer in the Attic
Manage episode 524750592 series 3308192
Adam Kidd and Josh Gunnels, aka Summer in the Attic, have been making music together since their college days in the 90s. Now based in Boston and Nashville, they collaborate online through I Heart Songwriting Club, challenging themselves and each other in inventive ways. In this episode, we explore their songwriting process—from Josh’s unconventional singing style and Adam’s intuitive understanding of his partner’s musical intentions, to the crucial role of production and recording in bringing a song to life. They share how songwriting transcends technical singing ability and how their creative energy thrives both in quick demos and polished tracks. Listen in as we dive deep into the making of the track ‘Mumble and Peg’ off their latest album, and the lessons it holds for every songwriter.
