Coming from different background to most I found no place at school and delved into music from an early age. I started writing songs as a kid, not because of grand ambitions but because it was an easy way to tell a story, a joke and often the truth. Tell the truth in a song and people are less pissed off than if you were to say it to their face. I sent out my stories to anyone and everyone, not surprisingly I often got no reply. The further I got into music the more attention I was getting for my own song writing, I made a choice last year and decided to go for it. ’Life In Cartoon Motion’ is my first record. It has a coming of age theme, and deals with my transition from childhood to now. What’s my sound? I guess it’s in the writing. I apologise in advance to the people whos stories and characters I have borrowed from. Remember, It’s only a caricature. |
