The Making of Songbook

Directed by Mary Spender

Mary Spender, British singer/songwriter and music YouTuber documented the process of recording the first two volumes of her recent album project, 'Songbook'. It had been a few years since Mary had been in a professional studio, but after the world being locked down, she couldn't wait to get back to work and put on record the songs she's been writing in this strange time. Over the course of the summer in 2021 she recorded 26 original songs that she whittled down to 18 tracks; two albums worth of material.
