You're going to be. Hi and welcome to the working songwriter, the show where today's best songwriters come to talk shop.

I'm your host, Joe Pug. Each episode here we host a distinguished

guest and we ask them to go deep on their inspiration, on their process, on the

general ups and downs of making a life in music.

So, whether you're a grizzled veteran trying frantically to Google just what the hell Band Camp Friday is or else a scrappy upstart hoping

desperately that the payout from Band Camp Friday will cover this month's rent.

This is your show because ultimately it is what every writer seeks most an

ironclad excuse to put off actually writing. Hey everybody it's the second Friday of December 2020 and I thank you for joining us

this week show is brought to you by Bandzougal.

Built by musicians and four musicians, Bandzougal is an all in one platform to build a beautiful website for your music. I'm old enough to remember

when you had to pay somebody called a web developer to get a website made and it

would always be some guy named Lorenz who drove a Dodge Stratus with spinning rims, and who was always trying to sell

you V-S-O-P that he portioned into seven-up bottles.

In old Lorenz, we charge you about a thousand bucks for a website that would be obsolete in six months, but it's the future now, you guys, that's not how it works anymore. We're allowed to have nice things now.

One of those nice things is Banzugel. Banzugel powers the

websites of tens of thousands of musicians around the world from weekend warriors to

Grammy winners. Everything that you need is there, hosting and a custom domain name,

dozens of fully customizable design templates,

you can sell your merch there, commission-free,

you can have mailing list tools to send newsletters, you can have direct to fan sales,

it's a wonderful product.
