The songwriter-producer relationship is a special one. It's also complex, from finding someone who's a good fit to building trust and open communication. I couldn't be more delighted to welcome my producer, Bob McCutcheon, back onto the show to draw back the curtain on our experiences working together and to give an entertaining and informative glimpse into what the songwriter-producer relationship is all about. The quote for this episode is by Quincy Jones: “For every hour of recording, have two hours of laughter in the studio.” During our fantastic conversation, Bob and I talk about the magic that happens in the studio, finding a balance between having fun and getting work done, the producer's role of making an artist feel comfortable, determining if a songwriter or producer is a good fit from both perspectives, the artist's desire to have a hands-on approach to the production of their music, production being a learning process for artists, rates for music production and how they vary depending on the producer and project, expectations from both perspectives, preparing for sessions, sharing ideas while producing a song, being open to experimentation, having healthy and comfortable communication, course correcting when a song isn't going in the right direction, building trust, music distribution and release strategies, and much more. I'm so glad Bob joined me for another amazing conversation, and I hope it gives you a glimpse into the songwriter-producer relationship. Are you enjoying Write on Track?

On today's Zero Limits Podcast I head down to the famous Wiggle studio and sit down with Anthony Field aka the Blue Wiggle and former 5/7 RAR Australian Army infantry soldier. Anthony was born 8 May 1963 is an Australian musician, actor, songwriter and producer. He is best known as a leader of the children's group the Wiggles and a member of the 1980s and 1990s pop band the Cockroaches. While still a teenager, he helped found the Cockroaches with his brothers, Paul and John. The Cockroaches recorded two albums and enjoyed moderate success, interrupted by Field's service in Australia's regular army, until they disbanded in the late 1980s.Field attended Macquarie University to receive training in early childhood education, and founded the Wiggles with fellow students Murray Cook, Greg Page and former bandmate Jeff Fatt in 1991. He worked as a preschool teacher for two years before the success of the Wiggles led him to focus on children's music full-time. The Wiggles became one of the most successful and active groups in Australia. Field, who wears a blue shirt while performing with the Wiggles, was responsible for the production aspects of their stage and television shows, albums, and DVDs. His issues with chronic pain and depression, which almost forced him out of the group at the height of their success, are well-documented. After the departure of Cook, Fatt, and Page in 2012, he is the only remaining original Wiggle. Get ready for this one!

How does learning music have anything to do with entrepreneurship and business? In this episode, I speak with a dear friend of mine, Tom, who has reminded me through music classes how important it is to step out of your comfort zone every now and then.  Tom recently left a 9-5 type role and realized how important freedom and flexibility is for his life. He talks about the realization of really crunching the numbers and coming to a conclusion that a freelance work life meant working less and getting paid the same (if not more than a 9-5). He learned through evaluation of his work and the types of students he enjoyed teaching, that it could look different. Through his reflections, he realized he didn't have to have a work week that meant exhaustion.  And in this episode, he shares his journey on how he really started curating his life into one he truly enjoys and the moments during the pandemic that helped shape that.  Hop into this episode now! You won't want to miss this conversation between two friends who are both former 9-5ers who now have full-time freedom!     If you want to listen to Tom's music, you can find him on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/45558nRrnIpEhl2fFFzT2L?si=sqp1wPkFQ5mHPwNebHTrYw  Insta here: https://www.instagram.com/fromtomxo/    Email here:  tommcgeoch@gmail.com    Follow Leslie on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@letgoanddiscover    CutClass' website: https://www.letscutclass.com     Are you an employee or an entrepreneur?

Martin Sutton is a multi-platinum British songwriter, record producer, mixer, multi-instrumentalist, programmer, and songwriting coach and mentor living and working in the United Kingdom. He has worked with many major artists worldwide including LeAnn Rimes, Céline Dion, Backstreet Boys, Olivia Newton-John, Gary Barlow, Mike + The Mechanics, K-pop superstars Super Junior, The X Factor and American Idol winners, and more! He is also the founder of The Songwriting Academy with an incredible faculty of industry professionals all under one roof! The Songwriting Academy provides students with courses that provide the skills, guidance, contacts, and advice to further anyone's career in the music industry. Even though Martin grew up in Norfolk in England, which he notes as not being much of a musical hotspot, he still had music and a love and passion for it in his blood. He talks about that and how he got into music and songwriting, and also discusses the Songwriting Academy and how it is unique in what it offers, his Clubhouse rooms and what they have to offer, what a successful collaboration is to him, what kind of music he grew up on and who influenced him, what the very first record was that he ever purchased, how success doesn't mean the same thing to everyone, the importance of finding the appropriate balance between lyrics and melody, how he tries to do everything that he does as a songwriter and as a creator with authenticity, and so much more! This conversation with Martin is a great one for anyone who wants to take their career in music and songwriting to the next level.
