Why do you write songs?
Why did you learn to play an instrument?
Did it start because you loved it? Do you still love it?
In this conversation with David Stükenberg that is the thing that I walked away with the most. I was encouraged to not forget why I started down this path so many years ago.
David is such an incredible musician (guitar and piano) and songwriter. He’s been in the music business since he was a teenager.
He started early as a teenager and signed a deal as a staff writer in Nashville (for which he was grammy nominated for his work with the band LEELAND). From there he went on to write and release his own music, score and produce music for film and sync and to produce and record other people’s music. He’s done a lot and worn many hats.
And he still loves it.
But the thing that he is most excited about is his non-profit startup called MODERNPSALM. It’s an organization that allows church songwriters to connect their royalties to other non-profits and in this case taking care of orphans.
It’s a respectable idea that might completely change the game when it comes to church music.
We go in detail into that which was such an honor.
Can’t wait to hear more as they continue to develop.
