Well, what can I say I used to listen to music in my parents car outside their house for hours in the 80's as a teenager. Anything from Genesis to that album with the yellowy shapes on the front is my a favourite of mine and ELO's greatest hits was another favourite.
I fell in love with music and it used to drive me wild then and even more so now in an emotional way. I didn't know I could write lyrics, sing and play for years until When I moved to London in 1996 I became an Actor, enjoyed performing a bit, but always met people involved with music. The penny didn't drop until I saw a friend of mine and told her after 5 years of Acting I didn't enjoy it anymore and my real passion was music. So she said well why don't you just go for it? So I answered an ad in Loot lyric writer wanted to collaborate with a composer.
Then I met Carole, this lovely lady from South London, who trained me in the art of writing lyrics.
Then 18 months later I moved up to Manchester .
I practiced on my out of tune guitar for maybe two months in the basemount. I had written some lyrics about May Bank Holiday or Easter in Dorset.
I met Aminder in our profile photo in January 2008, the super chap with the scarf on his head. He is a musician/producer and singer. So I said to Aminder I was ready to record something. So one night in Sept this year he played the guitar bits on this track. I sang and wrote the lyrics and chose the guitar chords. We recorded the track and there it is on our profile page.
Since then Aminder has remainded a great adviser to the way I create music.
