About Me

HELLOO, My name is Anna-Louisa and I write songs on guitar and tunes on the piano, I also play the violin or fiddle if you prefer. I write about the lake district which is where i was brought up (i was born in sheffield however) and also relationships (how GENERIC i know but it impacts everyone really).....I don't believe in writing about something unless it has an emotional impact on me or inspires me greatly.....so unless i'm DRUNK, it's unlikely i'd be inclined to write a song about table mats or cushion covers (not that i don't think these things are important of course). One day i would like to write about politics and something a little deeper, however until i know a LOT about such things i will stick to matters of the heart and countryside. When i PLAY i feel HAPPIER than ever and when people like my music it makes me feel INVINCIBLE......it's a passion (whoo you can feel it in the air la la hahaha).....but SERIOUSLY it is, I don't know what i would do without making my music. I have been gigging around NEWCASTLE for a while now (this is where i study) and i am looking for a MANAGER/PRODUCER to keep me in order and help me promote and record better quality songs.....if you know of such a person or YOU are interested then drop me a message and i would be everso happy like a child at CHRISTMAS. Well, that is all i have to say about my music for now, i hope you like it, or even better love it, and even better i hope it makes you feel something. OVER AND OUT!!!! I'll tell you a story if you ask.
