///UPCOMING LIVE/ONLINE WORKSHOPS\\\ See what's coming up here: https://kcsongstudio.com/workshops/

This video is an extract from a longer video titled '6 SONGS THAT TAUGHT ME HOW TO WRITE SONGS' - https://youtu.be/shA1AuGXbrc

In this video we focus on the Leonardo's Bride hit 'EVEN WHEN I'M SLEEPING', released in 1997. We perform a live version of the the song, discuss the beauty of line cliches and explore the concept of 'stealing' interesting ideas and adapting them to your own compositions.

ABOUT ME:

I'm Keppie. I'm a professional songwriter, and songwriting teacher. I've been teaching song and lyric writing for over 10 years now for some of the best contemporary music colleges in the world—Berklee Online, the Sydney Conservatorium of Music's Open Academy, as well as for the Australian College of the Arts. At other times, I've taught for the Australian Institute of Music, as well as the LA School of Songwriting.

My goal is to help people write better songs! My experience in the classroom, with thousands of students at this point (many going on to find careers and success in music), is that your songwriting, like all things, can get better with meaningful, deliberate practice. My intention is to share the skills, knowledge, information, and ideas that I've gathered with anyone who wants to improve their songwriting.

ABOUT BENNY:

Aside from being a killer lap-slide players, Benny is a core member of one of Australia's best and most bearded country-bluegrass-folk bands, THE GREEN MOHAIR SUITS. Benny writes songs, as well as instrumental music for film, television, games and other visual media. He has taught song and lyric writing in Australia for the JMC Academy and the Australian Institute of Music.
