Interview with Josh Durey | Songwriter & Demo
Q: Tell us about a project you worked on you are especially proud of and why. What was your role?
A: I’m especially proud of my work on Country Cate. I created and shaped the channel from scratch, writing all the lyrics and curating the AI demo process. Seeing original songs connect with thousands of country fans around the world—and proving that AI can empower authentic storytelling—has been incredibly rewarding.
Q: What are you working on at the moment?
A: Right now, I’m focused on Country Cate—a pioneering YouTube channel where I write original lyrics and produce AI-powered song demos in the style of classic and modern country music. It’s an exciting project that blends storytelling, technology, and tradition.
Q: Is there anyone on SoundBetter you know and would recommend to your clients?
A: I’m new to SoundBetter and don’t have personal recommendations yet, but I’m always happy to help clients find what they need.
Q: Analog or digital and why?
A: Digital—for flexibility, speed, and the ability to deliver top-quality results anywhere in the world.
Q: What's your 'promise' to your clients?
A: My promise is that you’ll always get original lyrics and multiple demo options to choose from—so you’re never stuck with just one version. You’ll have the flexibility to pick what fits you best and move your music forward with confidence.
Q: What do you like most about your job?
A: Turning someone’s idea or feeling into a finished song they’re proud to share. I love making the creative process easier and more inspiring.
Q: What questions do customers most commonly ask you? What's your answer?
A: Q: Do I own the lyrics and demos? A: Yes—lyrics are yours, and demos are for your creative use. For commercial release, record your own version.
Q: What's the biggest misconception about what you do?
A: That AI demos mean “generic” or “cookie-cutter.” In reality, I use AI as a tool for speed and inspiration—every lyric and demo is crafted for you.
Q: What questions do you ask prospective clients?
A: What’s your vision for the song? Any favorite artists or genres? Is there a story or feeling you want to capture?
Q: What advice do you have for a customer looking to hire a provider like you?
A: Come with a clear idea of the feeling you want to capture. The more honest and direct you are, the better I can turn your ideas into songs that actually work for you.
Q: If you were on a desert island and could take just 5 pieces of gear, what would they be?
A: Laptop, audio interface, studio monitors, display, peripherals
Q: What was your career path? How long have you been doing this?
A: I’ve written stories and songs for years—originally as a published author, now as a songwriter and creative collaborator. I bring a storyteller’s perspective to every project.
Q: How would you describe your style?
A: Grounded, narrative-driven, and emotionally direct. I avoid clichés and aim for lyrics and demos that feel real and memorable.
Q: Which artist would you like to work with and why?
A: I’d love to work with Brandi Carlile or Chris Stapleton—artists who value raw emotion and storytelling as much as production quality.
Q: Can you share one music production tip?
A: Focus on the story first. A well-told lyric or a strong emotional core always makes production choices easier and more effective.
Q: What type of music do you usually work on?
A: Most often, I work in country, Americana, and classic pop, but I’m flexible—folk, indie, or any genre with a strong story at its heart.
Q: What's your strongest skill?
A: Distilling big ideas or emotions into clear, relatable lyrics—and delivering ready-to-use demos quickly, without drama or delay.
Q: What do you bring to a song?
A: Emotional clarity, storytelling, and the ability to translate your vision into lyrics and music you can actually use—fast. I bridge human creativity and technology for real, actionable results.
Q: What's your typical work process?
A: I start with your brief, write original lyrics, then generate multiple demo versions with AI—customized to your preferred genre or feel. All files are delivered in 3–5 days, ready for you to use or adapt.
Q: Tell us about your studio setup.
A: My workflow is fully digital and remote-friendly. I use a mix of cutting-edge AI tools and DAWs, quality headphones, and studio monitors to ensure every demo sounds polished and ready for reference or pitching.
Q: What other musicians or music production professionals inspire you?
