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 to soundtrack a Barry Levinson movie with

a 78 piece orchestra or else a scrappy upstart, sound tracking a friend's vimeo short with

a midi keyboard, this is your show because ultimately it is what every writer seeks most.

And ironclad excuse to put off, actually writing.

Hey everybody, it's the fourth Friday of July 2021 and I thank you for joining us.

This week's show is brought to you by Banzoo.

Built by musicians and four musicians, Banzoo 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 Kit who drove a Kia Sportage with

tinted windows and who was always trying to sell you bath salts that he had packaged

in short pringles containers.

An old kit 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 Banzoo.

Banzoo go powers the websites of tens of thousands of musicians around the world from weekend

warriors to Grammy winners.
