"I love how it feels to be wild."
Can you really package a deep, meaningful message about the perils of conforming to social convention in a slick, spooky Halloween jam? Genre-bending, independent, Denton-based musical artist Brian Lambert says yes.
Back for his second appearance on Journey of a Song, Brian chats with Emmeline about how an exploration of major chords turned into a well-crafted werewolf song with a message about creative empowerment. He also shares some of the lessons from his previous project--in which he wrote and produced one song each week for an entire year--and some of the aspects of the music business with which he's not only come to terms, but to which he's leaned in over the course of the past few months. They also talk about how songwriting inspiration can come from nerdy music theory ideas, and how the different connotations of the term "emotional manipulator" can apply to musicians.
