Songwriting

Hey guys  How are you all!?  So the last post I made, I said that when I procrastinate I like to divert to music and songwriting.   Sooooooo I thought that I might share with you all how  I go about doing this!  Tips and Tricks  1. Firstly I have to be in a 'songwriting mood'.  - I believe songwriting is not something you can force. The best songs I have written have come when I was just singing random stuff while mucking around on the piano.  - I find that when I surround myself with people, or expose myself to different situations, I experience convicting emotions meaning that lyrics and melody come easiest :)  2. The more you do it the easier it comes  - If you give yourself opportunity to be free in the moment and sing when and what you want, the quantity of new material grows significantly.  - Also it's a good way of expressing how you feel and I find it is a good stress reliever.  3. You won't remember it later so write/record it

Things I do when I'm procrastinating or bored...

Boredom & Procrastination  For me, I always have something I should be doing but I can never be bothered to actually do it....  So if your like me and can't be bothered to do 'that thing' you 'really need to do ' then my advice would be to at least do something productive with your time! Binge watching TV shows may seem like a great idea, however I find I am always more fulfilled if I do something on my to do list!  For example:  The other day I was supposed to be working on my biology assignment. However, as per usual, I didn't feel like doing it....  So instead, I decided I would still do something fun but productive with my time;  MY MUSIC COMPOSITION!  For any of you that know me, music is one of my passions, so writing a song is fun for me. Because it's something I love to do, I spent hours just writing and recording and before I knew it BOOM! One more assessment done and dusted! Sure it wasn't the one I had planned to

Oh how time sails by

  Oh how time sails by...  Hey guys,                                                        So another gig done and dusted!  Solebar is officially over and done with, which means we are sailing towards the fast approaching shore! I think we are all a little sad about finishing up in the place where our band began :( There's no doubt we will continue to produce and practice music as a band long after school though! So yeah, I think it's fair to say that our bathtubs are filled with emotions.  Both happiness and sadness.  But all in all, we are ready. Ready to let the wind catch our sails!  Feeling: Too many emotions....
