Where it came from
Released in 2011 by Backbeat Books, this boxed set compiles three essential volumes by musician and author Rikky Rooksby: How to Write Songs on Guitar, How to Write Songs on Keyboards, and How to Write Songs on Bass. The set was designed to provide a comprehensive, cross-instrumental approach to songwriting, catering to both novices and intermediate musicians looking to deepen their understanding of harmonic structures, melody, and rhythm. By consolidating these established guides, the publisher aimed to offer a holistic educational resource for the modern DIY songwriter.
Rikky Rooksby, known for his analytical approach to popular music, structured these guides to demystify the creative process through practical exercises and historical analysis of classic song forms. The design emphasizes accessibility, moving away from overly academic music theory toward actionable techniques used in rock, pop, and blues songwriting. Upon its release, the collection was well-received by instructional music circles for its clear, encouraging tone and its focus on the collaborative relationship between an instrument’s physical layout and the resulting musical output.
