This podcast is only temporary – Détails, épisodes et analyse

Irish songwriter and producer Andy White’s third series of This podcast is only temporary tells the story of the writing and recording of his latest album 'Good Luck I Hope You Make It'. 

As in the first two series, going track by track through solo album ‘This garden is only temporary’ and the 'AT' album co-written with Tim Finn, every week Andy looks at how a song's layers of lyrics and music work together, how sometimes ideas appear as if by magic – and if not, inspiration can always be encouraged. 

Andy plays excerpts from the master tapes and discusses process and influences, recording, playing and writing in a home studio. If you're thinking of making your own album, you might find a way of doing it here. Each episode ends with a different version of the song from the one you'll find on the released albums. 

If the underlying theme of Series 1 is "How to make an album" and Series 2, "How to co-write an album", Series 3 might be all about going back to the beginning. As always, "If you want to express something but don't know how to express it—tell the truth. This is powerful."
