My musical father inspired me to learn the Piano which then led on to the Guitar. There was always music in the house and always had access to musical instruments. No real surprise that now the piano, guitar, singing and songwriting are a huge part of my life.
I’ve been writing for as long as I’ve been playing and think of it as the cheapest form therapy in the world. There are some tracks of my album “Part of the Solution†that you can listen to on this page and more at www.stuartelwin.co.uk. You can also buy the album there.
It has been said that this album is "a brilliant example of Stuart’s work. As well as delivering a fine vocal performance with powerful and memorable songs, this self produced album has Stuart playing and arranging the majority of the instruments to stunning effect†(quote by Stuart Elwin).
I’m often gigging around London and the South West with tracks from my album and trying out new material. I don’t like to box myself as a “Singer Songwriter†but I do sing and I do write my songs, so if the shoe fits…
I’ve been lucky enough to compete in and win the Earls Court Unsigned Artist Trophy and the SEB Collective Singer Songwriter and have loved playing some festivals this year.
Its always hard to try and define your own music, so the best way for us to do it is probably for you to listen to the tracks and leave me a message to let me know what you think.
