What Does a Songwriter/Producer Do? ft. Andrew Goldstein (Blackbear, Linkin Park, Maroon 5)
This week we have Andrew Goldstein - an incredibly talented songwriter/producer who has a rolodex of artists he’s worked with but not limited to Blackbear, Linkin Park, and Demi Lovato. Andrew started his career as a touring musician before eventually making his way to LA to work in the studio. I saw his wikipedia page and damn - this guy has worked with everyone. The more we talked I discovered he went about living in LA the right way. Andrew is a such thoughtful guest to have on and I hope you can take away some knowledge from this episode. Thank you Andrew for your time and for sharing your knowledge.
In this episode of the Don’t Shit On The Bus podcast we will learn:
• How to see other artists success as a motivator
• Andrew’s transition from being in a band to producing music
• The importance of setting up boundaries and ambitions
• How Andrew produced for Blackbear, Katy Perry, and Selena Gomez
