Songwriters on Process
Annie DiRusso
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
I'm a much better songwriter when I'm reading," Annie DiRusso says. Truer words have never been spoken; a clear through line connects quality songwriting and reading. And the fact that DiRusso loves poetry makes me even more of a fan.
DiRusso does most of her songwriting in her "giant mess" of a bed. "It's covered in guitars, notebooks, pens, a laptop, mics. There's ink stains all over the sheets too," she says on the pod.
DiRusso's new album Super Pedestrian is out now
