I'm now a quarter of a century old ๐๐
As much as I love writing/creating I often get stuck into a perfectionist/overthinking mindset. Often scrapping ideas because they're not "just right!" ๐คฆโโ๏ธ
In an attempt to overcome this, I just set myself a challenge to write a song in 20 minutes! โฐ๏ธ
It didn't have to be perfect, I just wanted to get used to firing ideas out without otherthinking them. It was actually fun and the end result was pretty good! I'm probably going to keep the song i wrote! ๐๐ป
Highly recommend the challenge to other people as a fun songwriting exercise! โ๏ธ
I will be playing Live and Local Festival at on 27th August! ๐๐ป๐ถ๐

These photos were taken almost exactly 4 years apart to the day...the first is my first time playing solo, feeling very tentative and unsure, the second I'm playing in a band feeling happy and confident in what I'm doing ๐๐ป
Inbetween these two photos there's been so many overcome hurdles and anxieties, a lot of sweat and tears, and a lot of changing hairstyles ๐
but most of all, growth! Not just with skill, but with how I carry myself.
Seeing the photos side by side reminds me how far I've come, and how far I can still go!
4 years can pass in the blink of an eye, and yet so much has happened in that time.
So grateful to those who've supported and continue to support the journey ๐ค๐ป
I've been writing some new material again recently, and I can't wait to share it when I'm back from my upcoming holiday ๐ค
A wicked evening captured wonderfully by ๐ธ

This song is very bittersweet: it's about loved ones helping you through difficult times, and being able to still make happy moments together throughout the chaos ๐ค
