ABout

What do “Losing my Religion” by R.E.M., “Satisfaction” by the Rolling Stones, and “Chandelier” by Sia have in common? They were all written in under an hour, and so were tons of other classic songs.

Have you ever wondered what would it be like to be a fly on the wall during one of these songwriting sprints? Well, what if the songwriters weren’t quite as talented, but they were really funny?

Our Debut Album is the podcast where two comedians have one hour to write a hit song. Once a month, Dave Shumka and Graham Clark of Stop Podcasting Yourself get together and write a song they hope will be a hit. After 12 months, they’ll have a debut album.

You get to hear the entire songwriting process, the worst rhymes ever suggested, arguments about themes and imagery, with all the boring parts edited out.

New episodes come out on the first Wednesday of every month. Subscribe through iTunes, Stitcher, Soundcloud, or any other podcast player using this address: http://ourdebutalbum.libsyn.com/rss
