What does it really take to build a music‑tech startup in Nashville? In this episode, co‑founder Kevin McCarty shares the story behind We Should Write Sometime, the platform known as “Tinder for songwriters.”
Kevin reveals how he built the app, raised money from investors, and risked his own financial security to keep the company alive. You’ll hear the real cost of building a music product from scratch, what startup funding and equity dilution actually look like, and why so many songwriters still struggle to earn a living.
We also dig into how technology could reshape the future of the Nashville music industry: from connecting collaborators across cities to leveling the playing field for independent writers and artists.
