The Story Hour
In early 2012, David Hodges and fellow songwriter David Ryan Harris had an idea to start an elegant cocktail-infused songwriter's round at Hodges' house in the Hollywood Hills. This event would be a limited group of VIP's from the artist and creative community and would happen four times a year by private invite only. This event has become a regular occurrence and is well known and respected amongst the artist and songwriter community. Recent installments include Christina Perri performing her hit "Jar of Hearts", Dan Wilson performing the hit he penned with Adele "Someone Like you", David performing his hit with Kelly Clarkson "Because of You", Emerson Hart from Tonic performing "If You Could Only See", and many others.

Famous quotes containing the words story and/or hour:
“No one can write a best seller by trying to. He must write with complete sincerity; the clichés that make you laugh, the hackneyed characters, the well-worn situations, the commonplace story that excites your derision, seem neither hackneyed, well worn nor commonplace to him.... The conclusion is obvious: you cannot write anything that will convince unless you are yourself convinced. The best seller sells because he writes with his heart’s blood.”
—W. Somerset Maugham (1874–1966)
“In mathematics he was greater
Than Tycho Brahe, or Erra Pater:
For he, by geometric scale,
Could take the size of pots of ale;
Resolve, by sines and tangents straight,
If bread and butter wanted weight;
And wisely tell what hour o’ th’ day
The clock doth strike, by algebra.”
—Samuel Butler (1612–1680)
