Listen to my chat with New Zealand's very own singer songwriter, Alayna. We discuss songwriting, how it works, the artist- songwriter dynamic, the business behind it, and the mechanisms that are in place to write a hit song! She also tells me about how murky the waters get when it comes to music rights and one can draw the line between inspiration and plagiarism/infringement.
