Episode 91| Camden • "Finding your sound // Creating what you love"
In Episode 91, Brenton sits down with a longtime friend Camden (artist) to talk about the creative process of songwriting. It's something that looks different to everyone, but also has a lot of common ground and similarity no matter who you're writing with. "Some people know their sound right away... but what it took for me was hearing my voice on a lot of different recordings showing me what my voice sounds good on, and what my voice doesn't sound good on." Camden has had the opportunity to travel the world over the past couple of years being based in Nashville, TN, and has been able to meet different producers and songwriters to expand his creative approach to songwriting both for himself, and others.
