@billycorgan is here! Today’s architect of alternative rock didn’t only sell 30 million albums he defined the sound of an entire generation. This is one of the more unflinching conversations about what staying relevant actually costs.

In this episode of And The Writer Is, we go deep on:

• The trap of being defined by your greatest hits — and why he refuses it
• His father’s failed music career, and the moment his dad finally understood
• Chicago’s inward-facing indie scene and the cost of communities that don’t believe in themselves
• How the value of artists gets assessed in rooms — and why that’s broken
• What “influence” actually means vs. commercial success
• The gatekeepers are gone — what that really means for independent artists
• Owning 100% of your publishing and why that changes everything
• Building a new world where direct artist support is how things actually work
• Why legacy thinking is changing, and what comes next

@dermotkennedy is here!
Today’s guest is the Irish troubadour who sold out arenas across the world and built one of the most durable careers in modern music, entirely on his own terms.
In this episode of And The Writer Is...
We go deep on:
• His whole journey
• The moment he realized the audience could feel how hard he was trying — and why that was the problem • How to carry ambition, sensitivity, and creative instinct in the same body without one of them destroying the other
• Building an international career without a viral hit — and what that reveals about how the industry actually works
• The busking years, and the secrets for how he survived
• Why he deliberately toured smaller venues on his last run — and what that decision says about success
• Imposter syndrome, insecurity, and the reality of growing a career from 0-100.
And much more...

@charlieputh is BACK sharper, more “Charlie” than he’s ever been, and fully in his producer era. This episode he breaks down how he’s refined his instincts, trusts his ear at a near obsessive level, and pushes for perfection without overthinking the magic out of a record. It’s less about proving himself this time, and more about owning exactly who he is as a hitmaker.
