ABOUT SONGCRAFT
Songcraft: Spotlight on Songwriters is a bi-monthly podcast featuring in-depth career-spanning interviews with songwriters of various genres and eras. The show was launched in 2015 by Scott B. Bomar and Paul Duncan. Scott and Paul started Songcraft as a forum for everyone from casual music fans to fellow creative types to hear songwriters in conversation about their influences, the stories behind their songs, and how they've honed their craft.
