Last week I attended a songwriting workshop hosted by the Austrian Union of Composers. The teacher of the workshop was Jörgen Elofsson, a swedish songwriter who has an astonishing career behind him. Jörgen has written songs for many very famous singers like Celine Dion, Il Divo, Westlife, Kelly Clarkson, Britney Spears.... truly an awe-inspiring career as I said, you should check out his bio !

The first day of the workshop he told us about his life, some funny stories ( he really had a LOT of them) and how he reached the "stardom of songwriters". One of the most remarkable anecdotes is that his first manager ended up being a random guy from his village who spontaneously decided he wanted to be his manager after hearing his songs!!!!!! I also found it interesting that it took him 20 years to reach any success in the music industry ( which shows that being constant is KEY) and that he was approached by the swedish princess and her now husband to compose a song for her wedding.

The second day was dedicated to receiving feedback from him on our songs. I showed the new song i am working on, which i hope to release early February with a music video and he told me some tips I will definetely make use of. One of the only things i am unsure about is how i should call the song...but I will let you know if I decide the title. Only thing i will tell you for now is that it is related to avocados, milk....confusing ha?? what could it be?

Right now Jörgen is working with a swedish-american singer called Rhys, you can listen to their new project here:
