THE SONG DOES NOT REMAIN THE SAME

THE SONG DOES NOT REMAIN THE SAME

Keep moving or sink. What works for sharks works for songwriters.

Edmonton’s Stereos burned into our consciousness in 2009 with their top-5 chart hit Summer Girl. Since then, smartphones became universal, the political landscape shook and streaming became the global listening and viewing mode. And multi-platinum, Juno-winning songwriter Patrick Kordyback rode every wave as the band sailed through the next decade.

In this Q&A with veteran entertainment reporter Rudy Blair, Kordyback talks about adapting to a DIY era, writing hits on GarageBand, switching from the “jam” approach to solo songwriting, listening to and co-writing with other artists to widen his creative palette, and – most importantly – shedding the notion that there is only one way to do anything.
