Hi. 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 selling

your vintage less Paul on reverb for the price of a modest house down payment or

else a scrappy upstart trying to sell the boss digital

delay you bought secondhand in the first place for the price of a cup of coffee.

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 September 2024 and I thank you for joining us.

This week's show was brought to you by Ban Zugel.

Built by musicians and for musicians, Banzugel 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. It would always be some

guy named Alistair who drove a Chevy Pinto with a disturbed bumper sticker

and who was always trying to sell you herbal supplements for male virility that he claimed were from Peru.

An old Alistair would 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 Banzougal for over 20 years Banzougal has

made it easy to build a stunning website and online store for your music.

Now they've added a brand new EPK plan

so that musicians can create a professional single-page electronic press kit

in minutes.

Everything you need is already built in. Music
