Publisher's summary

Jake Stark. Hit songwriter for Nashville music publisher MegaMusic. Until he's not. When MegaMusic decides to not renew his contract over a lack of hit songs, Jake is at a loss. His creative energy is down, and the bills are piling up.

Enter Sir Daniel Smith-Daniels, the young, enigmatic owner of the hottest music publisher in Nashville, The Row. During a compelling initial meeting, Sir Daniel introduces Jake to his unique approach to work and life, The Method. Soon, with the help of The Row's talented roster of collaborators, Jake is creating some of the best music he's written in years. And what's more, by following The Method's five distinctive practices, Jake may finally be able to write the song he's always known has been within him, but just out of reach, "The Greatest Song".

From acclaimed songwriter Kevin Griffin, The Greatest Song is a creative-nonfiction book for every profession. Through the inspiring fictional narrative of Jake Stark, Griffin shares ideas that can be used by anyone, anywhere, to transform their career and their life.

The Greatest Insight

As someone who lives in Nashville and endeavors in the creative space it was wonderful to read Kevin’s book which can remind us all that the journey worth taking is fraught with challenges and achievements. Staying at the top of YOUR game requires commitment and resolve and hearing this reinforced through Kevin’s engaging story with the names, landmarks and pop culture references was as thoroughly entertaining as it was empowering. Highly recommend weather you are a songwriter, teacher, lawyer, Doctor… well, actually if you are just a human!

Thoroughly enjoyed

I’m a huge fan of Kevin Griffin and better than Ezra. It was a great insight to his mind and his message in the music industry.

Such a Fun Listen

This story was full of funny moments and wonderful insights into life, creativity, and business. I was surprised to also learn a lot about the music business that I never knew. The author did a great job narrating and I loved the original music and sounds throughout!

A feel good read

And a reminder to stay curious, challenge the process and step outside what you believe to be right. The audiobook was great because there are songs interspersed!
