Job Or Passion

“I write country to feed my family
I write Americana to feed my sout”
Comment by Songwriter at 2011 30A Songwriter’s Festival

Accompanist, Louise Mosrie, Kim Richardson, Jen Foster Performing at 2011 30A Songwriters Festival

Songwriters have a passion for creating.  So do authors, copy writers, graphic artists, painters, mechanics, craftsmen or anyone doing work labelled a "job".  Songwriters may write copy for food, mechanics repair cars for food. Within each of them lies other projects; the songwriter writes and sings about the joys of her family; the mechanic restores a ’67 Jaguar XKE.

Within every “job’ lies the potential for a passion which can feed the soul. 

Look within your “job” and find the spark that ignites a passion.
