Florida Georgia Line Talk Songwriting
Florida Georgia Line’s Brian Kelley and Tyler Hubbard are both songwriters and have been in the studio working on their next album.
Brian said they make a conscious effort not to write the same song twice.
I think for both of us the songwriting process is different every time. Sometimes it starts with literally, like, the title and then you kind of go from there. Sometimes it starts with a guitar lick. Sometimes it starts with maybe just a simple lyric. But I think we all just try to bring something fresh to the table every time and try to word it different, try to create melodies that are different, that feel fresh, and try to marry them together to where it makes sense, where the lyric and the melody just fit, and it feels good. Also, it’s cool that we can write songs on buses, in hotel rooms, in the studio, in California, pretty much anywhere we go, you can write a song. And I think that also makes your content different. I remember starting a song in the bathroom one time because it sounded so good. I was playing the guitar, And so you never know where it’s gonna come from.
