Hello! My name is Scott Lape. I’m a writer and singer-songwriter living in Chico, California. I’ve been writing a lot of songs recently, and I love the whole songwriting process. Some songs start with the lyrics, some with a chord progression or a bit of melody; some are finished in a day, while others may take a year or more. And then, when a song is more or less done, it’s so much fun to play and sing it!

I really want to share these songs, so I’m recording demo versions and posting them on a music-hosting site called Bandcamp. And I’m writing a blog about my experience in writing the songs. Each post is about one song, and contains the chords and lyrics, plus a link to the song on Bandcamp. You can play the song there, and download it for free if you’d like.

If you’re interested, please check out my blog. I’d love to hear any comments you might have, thoughts about the lyrics, etc.

You can also check out my Bandcamp site directly at scottlape.bandcamp.com.

Thanks for visiting my site!
