for Songwriters!

Here are some excellent music books for songwriters that I have personally selected to help you get started. Even if you've never written a song before, you're sure to find some inspiring ideas. There is no reason why you can't write your own song. It's not as hard as you might think and can be lots of fun too!

This is one of the most exciting music books for songwriters that I've seen. Discover new ideas and inspirations for crafting your own songs from the experts! Tips and techniques offered by top singer-songwriters, such as Paul Simon, James Taylor, Joni Mitchell, Don McLean, Patty Larkin, David Wilcox, Dave Matthews and more. Explore chord progressions, melodies, alternate tunings and other subjects through a series of expertly designed workshops.
