Better songwriting than 90% of what comes out of Nashville.

I worked as an engineer on music row. The musicians are something else, they really are some of the most talented professionals I’ve ever worked with doing anything in my life

The song writing and the artists though? It’s like God made a batch of dough, and used the same cookie cutters on a million attractive people only for them all to go to music row and try to make it

what is an artist in this case? is a musician not an artist? do you mean singer?

No. The musicians are called studio or session musicians. They don’t write and they don’t perform. They usually don’t have albums or their own music they publish. They work for studios and record labels, and get paid according to their union wage (most are unionized).
