Hi Everyone,
This is the final installment of my little series about the song "All Night" written by me and my friend Ben Carson. Our band Hot Bodies in Motion is releasing the song this Friday the 13th on Spotify and everywhere else.

Here is a cool presave link to remind you when the song is available on Spotify. Feel free to share that link (if you feel like it.) The music video will be public on Friday as well.

In this video I'm talking about the bridge of this specific song as well as my general philosophy about bridges. We'll cover the parts (bass, guitar, vocal) and discuss the tonality of the bridge and why I chose a "dig into the groove" bridge over a "if, but, however" bridge.

Would you like to learn more about the process of writing and releasing a song? I've been thinking about kicking off a "Band Thoughts" series. The goal of this series would be to talk about:
- Navigating how to play music with other people
- How to find people to play music with
- How to write music with another person
- Democratic model or Band Leader model - which is best?
- How to be a good bandmate
- How to build a fanbase
- How to book shows
- Building a strong setlist
- Finding your band's sound

Sounds fun to me, but I'd like to make sure people are on board for it. Let me know in the comments!
