Welcome along,
My names Owen, my friends call me Owen. Alright you got me ... I dont really have friends .... BUT ... iF i did they would no doubt call me Owen. Im glad we covered that.
I spent 6 years at Uni and got a Masters in I.T. just to turn around and realize ... WHAT ... I am not for work ... I will end up sitting in a corner rocking myself mental and staring at the same wall.
I started out writing songs in my room at Uni in 1997, a fine vintage if I remember.... What I really want to do, is to write good songs that people like. Being a songwriter sounds like the perfect way to try and forge a living If it can be done ... it shall be done.
Im 27 and from Belfast Northern Ireland. Im in a band called The Delawares (www.myspace.com/thedelawares) at the moment which is a real blast and a real pleasure as we have quite a nice sound blooming now. Check it out if you have the time.
I also play solo gigs with various people. Caoimhe Mcalister and Una Monnahan are the two most frequent members. Unfotunatley Caoimhe is off in France teaching and having a blast so she is unavailable. Its a pitty, she has the most beatiful voice IN THE WORLD! I am currently preparing to play a couple of gigs with my sister maeve 'aretha Franklin' Lamont and Katie from the band.
Dont worry though readers, despite what seems like a hectic life schedule ... I still find time to do allot of sleeping (prasie be Allah) and allot of chillin, relaxing, maxing ... I know you feel that.
I hope you all enjoy the songs that I have written and recorded and stuck up here. If you have the time, leave me a comment and let me know what you think ... critisism welcomed and required.
Keep er lit one and all, and keep smiling, someone could be looking
PEACE
