[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Definitely a demo. That will help you find representation.

Songs are often created with a melody in mind. Do you have something in your head playing to go with the lyrics? If so, catch them on a recording on your iPhone. Humming is fine. For some reason, melodies hit me while driving - I use my iPhone to capture them quickly. You can literally turn the app on at a stoplight and hit record. It's that fast.

The songs I've written, I've at least written partially with melody, then other verses/bridge came to me at other times. The whole concept was there though.

Learning the basics of at least one instrument definitely helps though. Do you have time?[/quote]

So what's your process typically? Lyrics and melody -- simultaneously -- until there is a finished product? Do you have an agent that you turn to when you have a workable song -- I guess the question is how do you shop it around or get it "out there"?

I have time to pick up the guitar -- at least basics.[/quote]
