About Me

My intention is to write great songs and to create fabulous records. I've always felt that a singer must live, breathe and believe in the song they are singing -in both live and recording situations. I love the intricacies, subtleties and changes that great music production can bring when turning a song into a recording -although I simultaneously love the ability of a really good song to stand up for itself in its simplest form.

I believe in consciously being as kind as you can be, in details, in strong melodies and compelling delivery, in fairytale endings within a rather disenchanted society, and in doing what is for the best -even if doing so may not always be the easy way. Most of all, I believe that pop music can really mean something (even if its only purpose is making people smile) -and that it should be delivered with feeling, honesty and infinite sparkly dresses.

Following something of an epic quest I have begun rehearsing with a band of fabulous musicians and we will be playing live as soon as soon can be (September-ish)...

My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 3/1/2006
Band Members: Jennifer Andrew - Vocals / Piano
Influences:

I often find myself addicted to individual songs as opposed to being a ‘fan’ of, or being influenced by, particular artists. Of course there are certain artists I do listen to over and over again, but I just don’t seem to sound like them. The following is a list of those I always come back to: Patrick Wolf, Marti Pellow, Backstreet Boys, Biffy Clyro, The Blue Nile, Shea Seger, Kylie, Idlewild, Roddy Hart, Jimmy Eat World, Joan As Police Woman, The Everly Brothers, Justin Currie, Snow Patrol, Teddy Thompson, The Supremes, Rufus Wainwright, Annie Lennox.

I love (amongst many other things) flowers, photographs, travel, colour, Impressionist paintings, tartan, scrapbooks, shoes, cookie-cutters, words and language, seasons, sea air, smoky eyes, starry skies, scarves, sequins, fountain pens, bumbly bees, constancy. I daresay they influence me too.


Type of Label: None
