Joe Solo turned a chance meeting with Macy Gray into a 17 year journey that culminated in a Grammy win, a double platinum album, and a hit MTV video.

Soon afterward Joe transitioned into the world of music publishing as the head staff writer/producer for Paramount’s Famous Music Publishing division and has since had hundreds of professional collaborations and over 2,000 song placements in films, tv shows, video games, and commercials.

Joe is now CEO of Joe Solo Music+Entertainment, Inc., his multi-media, record label, publishing, artist development, and record production company, and is coaching and inspiring rising music and songwriting talent worldwide through his Music Success Workshop division.

During the interview we spoke about what makes a great demo, Joe’s approach to production, blending opposite song elements, his music success workshop, and much more.

On the intro I’ll take a look at why Taylor Swift might not find it so easy to re-record her old songs, and how our DAW world will soon transition to 64 bit.
