"I Just Burst Into Tears" - The Reality of Songwriting
Oct 9, 2025
The creative process is an emotional rollercoaster of intense anxiety and incredible relief.
In this deeply honest clip, Peder Bergstrand of Lowrider pulls back the curtain on his songwriting process. He describes the overwhelming relief of finally finishing a song and bursting into tears, but also the "miserable" fear of failure that comes from caring so much about the art. He reveals that this intense, internal struggle is a major reason why there are often years between the band's albums.
This is a must-watch for any creator who understands the emotional highs and lows of bringing an idea to life.
