Wayne Hall

About Me

I think I need to change my stage name. There's already another Wayne Hall out there. I'm different from him.

I'm aware that these songs are less than perfect. They're not done in a studio. They're recordings I've done at home within a few hours time. In some cases I'm recording songs as I write them. The songs are less actual songs than sketches of ideas. The sense of accomplishment comes in giving a tangible form to creative ideas. Once the idea is tangible, I'm not as motivated to polish and perfect, at least at this point. I'm in the creative stage.
