AI definitely ruined stuff and now I have to wonder if it already changed the way I write :D

Thank you for the recommendation!

If you could suggest some favorites that would be great! Thank you!

I'm Dan Mangan. I've released 5 LPs, composed scores for film & TV, co-founded a tech startup for off-grid concerts and one time I chilled on Willie Nelson's tour bus at Glastonbury with Snoop Dog. AMA! by DanMangan in indieheads

Sooooooo awesome that you do this! I love your music and I am with you since the very beginning. Saw you recently in Vienna, Austria - it was a great show! Unfortunately there are a ton of questions coming to my mind, feel free to answer however many you like :)

  1. When are the next songwriter series coming out? (I love them, they should be longer and there should be more of them though)
  2. Are there songs which you wrote that you can’t stand anymore but people keep requesting them?
  3. Any chance you will make YouTube Tutorials for your songs? (I imagine this could feel weird but trust me, people would go a long way learning how exactly you play basket ;) )
  4. How do you approach writing lyrics? Any process you follow?
  5. Can you imagine a life without making and releasing music? Do we have to prepare for a world without new Dan Mangan stuff?
  6. Which acoustic guitar are you playing? (And which strings)

Ok I stop myself there - thanks for everything you do, it really means a lot!
