Social Media for Songwriters with John Anealio

John-Anealio-Composer-Quest

In episode 20 of Composer Quest, Sci-fi songwriter and composer John Anealio shares tips on getting your music out to the online world without seeming like a narcissistic party-crasher. For example, following the 80/20 rule for Twitter and Facebook posts will keep your self-promotion in check. John also gives some helpful pointers on writing melodies, and he explains how even a simple song can employ one of Mozart’s secret weapons – the Rondo form! John has also set forth a challenge to those who would accept: finish 23 pieces of art in 2013. He believes that if you don’t finish and present your songs to the world, “you’re just the guy talking about your art, you’re not the guy doing it.”
