About Me


LYRICIST LOOKING FOR CO-WRITER
Writer into well-constructed lyrics that strike chords and touch hearts. Themes include the usual suspects – love, hate, anger, joy, loneliness, alienation, escapism or just the sad realities of life. Mostly it is universal truths well told. All with commercial chart pop or adult pop/rock potential. But no cliches.
Willing to explore all different styles. No limits. Appreciate all kinds of music. Method can be words first (my words are written with rhythm and an understanding or phrasing, meter and mood) or melody first. Both work!
Looking to work with a songwriter, composer or co-writer who is maybe finding inspiration hard to come by – someone with talent, depth and imagination who is part genius, part workaholic and 100% original.
