Singer-Songwriter Lisa Aschmann To Sign Latest Book On Dec. 4
Nationally known singer-songwriter Lisa Aschmann will sign copies of her latest book and perform some of her original songs during an appearance from 6:30-8:30 p.m. Dec. 4 (Thursday) at Borders Books & Music, 2525 West End Ave. in Nashville. Her book, 1000 Songwriting Ideas (Hal Leonard), is a handy book of creativity exercises to spark the fire of imagination. It offers concepts to ponder as starting places for songwriting, along with some of the most provocative and inspirational examples tunesmiths may encounter anywhere. Authored by a pro, these proven exercises are for moving the creative lyrical self, the soul, the real tool of songwriting, and the real object of a song's intention. A prolific songwriter and performer, Aschmann has written numerous songs for film and TV, and landed cuts in folk, jazz, pop, R&B, bluegrass, Gospel, adult contemporary, country and Americana. Her songs have been recorded by acts such as Diamond Rio, Collin Raye, Art Garfunkel, Aaron Neville, and many others. She has had more than 30 TV and film placements this past year, including Still Waiting, Numb3ers, Bones, West Wing, The Young and the Restless, JAG, Providence, The Perfect Man, It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia, My Name is Earl, Sex and the City, and Bonneville. The artist has released six solo albums with performances by noted Nashville session players. The event will feature a meet and greet from 6:30-7 p.m.; a musical performance with insights on songwriting from 7-8 p.m., and a book signing from 8-8:30 p.m. The book 1000 Songwriting Ideas, which retails for $18.95, is available through Amazon, the Nashville Songwriters Association International, and retailers from coast-to-coast.
