Prompt Queens

Emily's love of houseplants is the inspiration for this week's episode. The lush green of the foliage really comes out in the chorus, ya know? Tune in and find out what happens next on this week's installment!

The data shows that whenever we have a prompt that mentions a truly successful songwriter, more of you tune in. NO, Mr. Richie did not have time in his busy schedule to come out and do the show with us, but don't worry. We wrote his songs for him.

Nothing says, "We're getting tired of this thing called cold in late winter and begging for spring", than the prompt "Costa Rica!" Emily and Hope tackle this new one and Hope convinced early on that this might be the episode where they each finally end of bringing the same song to the table....and now you have to listen to find out.

Listen, like, share, subscribe and thank you. Keeping writing!

Dear friends, It's us again and we're back with another NEW weekly installment of everyone's favorite prompt songwriting podcast. Listen in as Hope and Emily tackle the prompt, "Cooler." I know I know. YOu have questions. So do we. Tune in to see if anything got clearer for any of us. Love, Hope and Emily

Don't ask us why the prompt is Neptune, just honor the moment, OK? It's where we're at, it took us to places, and we took you along for the journey without even asking your permission. WE're still back, this second episode of Season THREE is proof and we love you. Now go write that song.

Did you think we were gone for good? Nope. Just steeping. Just brewing, like a good cup of TEA. Welcome back, friends and neighbors. Hope and Emily return with a brand new episode and a brand new lease on life. It's on. Let's write some songs.

Emily and Hope are in The Garden State and writing new songs to share with you! It's been a minute and we've missed you. This is Prompt Queens, my friends!

My final interview from the dance is Mr. Mark Erelli. What a pleasure to get a chance to talk to him after being a fan of his for so many years. Mark (and Emily) and I have met many times through The Listening Room in Hastings, but this was the first time I had the chance to talk songs. Listen in, hear his great song, "The Hitter," and be sure to check out the rest of his catalog after the show. In light of recent events, I recommend his song, "By Degrees" if you haven't heard it yet. Find out more and where he's playing by checking out his website, www.markerelli.com

My friend and FAI roommate, Katie Dahl, is number five of six field reports and it was so delightful to get a chance to talk songs and writing with her on the microphone. Also, Emily and I talk about Katie every third episode probably on an average PQ rotation. Find out more about Katie and follow her on the socials! Her website is: www.katiedahlmusic.com

Continuing our field reporting with new music from artists you may or may not know, this 4th report features U.K. artist Carmen Phalen of Misty River. You are going to want to listen to this conversation because it's testimony to what music can do and how life can flash neon signs to help you along your way. I had so much fun getting a chance to talk to Carmen. Be sure to find out more by following her on Instagram: @mistyrivermusic and her website: www.mistyrivermusic.com
