Resources
for
Christian Songwriters

Hey there, I'm Lydia.

Here are some of my favorite resources, tools and links for independent musicians and songwriters to write, record and release their own music.

I've been in the independent music industry for over 15 years, and released a dozen albums of my own music. I've also helped musician friends get their songs online.

There's never been a better time in history to put your music out there and build your audience as an indie artist.

It's not too late, and you've got what it takes.

I believe there is room for everyone's gift, and that includes you!
