SongWriter is a storytelling and songwriting podcast where stories become brand new songs. In each episode, a celebrated writer shares a  story, and a musician writes and performs a song inspired by it — revealing how narratives turn into music, lyrics, and emotion. Hosted by Ben Arthur, SongWriter features conversations and performances from artists including Questlove, Joyce Carol Oates, George Saunders, Steve Earle, David Sedaris, and David Gilmour of Pink Floyd. The show blends the craft of writing, the creative processes of art, and intimate connections between authors and musicians. If you love great stories and great songs — and want a behind-the-scenes look at creativity from some of today’s most influential artists — this is your next listen.
