Songwriter Marty Dodson’s History Of A Cut

On January 16th, 2013, I met with Mark Nesler and Josh Osborne at my publishing company at 10:30AM. The three of us had never written together before. We threw around ideas and finally found one we were all excited about. We decided on the title “Don’t Hold It Against Me”. My idea was “If you can’t give me your heart, don’t hold it against me”. We wrote the song fairly quickly. Maybe an hour and a half.

We knew that we liked the song, but we weren’t jumping up and down over it. We tend to be overly pessimistic in regard to any given song’s chances. We turned the song in at our respective publisher’s. We got some decent feedback, but nothing overwhelming. All of our publishers liked it, but none of them were jumping up and down either.

Marty Dodson Bio

 

I was born in Apple Valley, California. My family moved around for several years before settling in Nashville, Tennessee when I was 5 years old. I have always loved music, but was intimidated by the sheer number of people I encountered growing up that were NOT succeeding in the music business. So, I went to college, got a degree in Psychology and worked in another career for 10 years. At that point, I decided I had to try to chase my dream of being a professional songwriter.

It took several years of writing for free before I landed my first publishing deal with Kim Williams and Sony ATV in Nashville.  Several years after that, Rascal Flatts recorded “While You Loved Me” and I had my first top ten single.  Another three years went by before Billy Currington, Jason Matthews and I had our first #1 single with “Must Be Doin’ Somethin’ Right”.

People often ask me what my favorite song is that I have written.  I’m very proud of the six #1 singles.  I’m thrilled that several iconic artists have recorded my songs – Joe Cocker, Leon Russell, The Oak Ridge Boys – to name a few.  I’m proud of my song “Bounce” knocking Psy out of the #1 spot on the K-Pop chart in Korea and for
