DW Borro is a talented songwriter whose positive reviews from industry critics affirm the deep emotion he calls upon to craft his lyrics. Far removed from the commercial aspect that often controls the direction of many of today’s writers, Doug never expected anyone to hear his music.
In “Over You” he tells a raw, revealing story that cuts through any expectation or pretense. This is not a writer motivated by casual observation, but inspired by first-hand experience.
“Some of my songs have taken 15 minutes to live and 3 years to write. Talking about my feelings is not one of my strong points”. You’d never know it by listening.
He says his writing serves as a catharsis; as he describes it, “a way to wrestle with life in my head”. He’s careful not to rush his “process”, taking his time, or as he describes it, “taking it apart and then putting it back together.”
