Songs to Inspire Your next piece
Introducing our series for artists looking to try a new exercise, those stuck in place waiting for that inspirational gust to whistle just the right tune, or for creatives anxious to create but at a loss for where to start. We've been there and we thought we'd try to lend a hand.
Here's a few songs to inspire your pieces on change! We hope these songs can be the burst of inspiration you need to finish your pieces. Or to remind you of those works left untouched in your archives that you always meant to do something with.
At the very least, let them be an interesting listen and reminder of your creative passions!

Alvvays
These songs are here to inspire pieces that are smooth and quiet. That flow low and beautifully, with something lurking in the undercurrents. A walk in the woods that’s full of soft green moss and sunlight through trees and a branch snapping behind you and your ears strain, and your breath catches, and everything is just a little quieter than it should be. A small-town interaction so extraordinarily ordinary that polite smiles and neighborly questions become unsettling.
These are the songs to inspire pieces with just a hint of the supernatural.
