💡 The Story Behind the Songsmith Scratch Pad

“This book was born out of pure frustration — and one unforgettable jam session.”

I remember sitting in a circle of musicians when the fiddler played a lick so perfect, I knew it was the start of my next song.
I scrambled for something to write it down — but my lyric pad wasn’t built for tab, and by the time I’d fumbled with my phone, the moment had passed.

That’s when I realised every banjo player needs a reliable, case-ready space to capture musical sparks before they fade.
This Songsmith Scratch Pad is that solution — ready for every idea that strikes when you least expect it.
