In this special Smoky Mountain Songwriting Festival Workshop “Writing Songs Artist Want To Record,” multi-hit songwriter Clay Mills takes you step-by-step through his writing process and the techniques necessary to improve the odds of getting your next song recorded by a major artist. Clay has proven his ability to put his talk into action with over 100 major artist songs recorded and 11 hit radio singles.”Imagine your favorite artist on stage performing that song that makes the hair stand up on your neck. You know the kind! In today’s world of declining record sales, artists’ careers are made or broken on the live stage. Artists live to find songs to record that help them create the magical moments that audiences talk about for days after the concert. It’s crucial as Songwriters that we understand how to write a great song—one that will work both on the radio and the live stage. That’s the new piece of the puzzle I’m excited about sharing at the Gatlinburg workshop.” ~Clay Mills
