The studio is not the place to write. You need to be 75% ready when you go into the studio, and then the music can develop to the next stage.

I generally prefer to come in to the studio with a fully written song and then work on the arrangement with the band. Sometimes even the arrangements are pretty much already worked out in my head, but other times we experiment.

I love being in the studio, and I am a huge fan of live music. Without writing good stuff in the studio, you have nothing to play live.

— Anthony Hamilton

To do more of a concert thing, it takes so much preparation. You don't just show up and wing it. You're putting countless hours in the studio, not just to write and produce stuff, but to come up with edits and special things for the show.

When I get in the studio the idea is just to work and bang out as many as I can.

I just go in the studio and write on the spot and see what comes out.

✗Opposing Perspectives

I just want to be in the studio 24/7. Even if I'm not working on a song right then, just sit in the studio. That's what I love.

The process is always the same. I get an inspiration for a new song, I put it down on paper immediately so I won't lose it. When I am ready to go to the studio with it, I play it a few times on the piano and edit, add, and type the lyrics and take it to the studio. Sometimes I don't have anything on paper.
