In this first episode of Juo Collab, I chat with Jonathon Skovron about his creative process, and then collaborate with him to create something from scratch, in real time.

We didn't have anything prepared, or bring anything except for an open mind. I wanted to capture what actually happens when artists create: the ideas, the uncertainty, and the moments where something begins to take shape.

In Ep 2 of Juo Collab, Jonathon Skovron and I each bring 3 songs to the party: a couple of original pieces, and a choice of cover song. These songs, along with the one we co-wrote in Ep 1, will form part of our set. We are each hearing songs for the first time.

What does a rehearsal sound like?

In this episode of Juo Collab, we run through the songs we shared and discussed in Episode 2, trying out different instruments, having a go at harmonies etc. In this episode, I refer to 'an extended episode'. I have mentioned this before, but for now, even though I have made them, I am waiting to upload them all at some point soon. If you have any feedback, I would be very happy to hear it!

What kind of song do we need to write to complete our setlist?
In this episode of Juo Collab, we try another way of writing a song. We don't have a title yet, so if you have any ideas, let us know!
