ROAD TO ROOSTER WALK: ANDERS OSBORNE TALKS SONGWRITING
Live For Live Music
is running a six-part series looking at the process and craft of songwriting. Each story in the series features a band leader who will perform at Rooster Walk 9. The fourth story focuses on Anders Osborne.
From the story:
Despite touring roughly nine months a year, Osborne is an ardent proponent of daily writing as habit.
“You’ve got to be grabbing at the stuff every single day, or I do. I have to grab at it every day, because I think the way I look at it is that inspiration and the muse is always dancing. And ideas are always out there. And if you miss it on a Thursday in February, I don’t think it shows up again, you know, in August. I think you missed the opportunity to write that song,” he said.
