Career Songwriter

I recently ran across an article on HallofFameMagazine.com that describes with beautiful sincerity the difficulties of being a songwriter in the major music markets. D. Vincent Williams is a name you’ll hear often up and down 16th and 17th Ave., Nashville’s Music Row. But he wasn’t always so popular. In fact, as most hit songwriters will admit, there was a time in our all careers we couldn’t get a song recorded to save our life. D. Vincent’s story is a familiar one, to me personally and to my friends and colleagues who have stuck in the industry long enough to find our ‘big break.’ From the outside, it seems that stars are made overnight. But from the inside, we know that the moments we hang in there are what put us in position to experience the turning points in our career. I hope this article renews your fighting spirit, and helps you to appreciate the shining jewels you hold within that just haven’t been discovered yet.
