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, getting your nephew to list your park or fly on

eBay, or else a scrappy upstart, looking to ironically purchase that Parker Fly for a

tongue-in-cheek photo shoot, this is your show. Because ultimately, it is what every writer seeks most.

An ironclad excuse to put off actually writing.

Hey guys, it's the second Friday of June 2020, and I thank you for joining us.

This week's show is brought to you by

Ban Zougal, built by musicians and four musicians. Ban Zougal 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 Sebastian who drove a Ford Explorer with tinted windows and a window decal of

Calvin and Hobbs peeing on a Macintosh logo and old Sebastian would charge you about a thousand

bucks for a website that would be obsolete in six months.

It's the future now, you guys.

That's not how it works anymore.

We have nice things now.

We don't have to deal with the Sebastian's of the world anymore.

Banzugel powers the websites of tens of thousands of musicians from around the world,

from weekend warriors to Grammy winners.
