Ep. 93 - MARK D. SANDERS ("I Hope You Dance")
Nashville Songwriters Hall of Famer Mark D. Sanders gives the inside scoop on why he had trouble co-writing with people who had more success than he had; the co-writer who taught him he could have fun and write a song at the same time; his battles with severe depression; the demo singer he credits with boosting his career; the famous song that inspired the chord progression of "I Hope You Dance;" and the ethical reason he decided to walk away from commercial country music culture after decades of success.
