The Life and Lies of an artist who wants to "Make It"

Hey Hey Hey Guys,
My name is Haydn Davies and I am indeed a Singer Songwriter based in sunny (yeah right!) London. In an attempt to stop being a lazy bum as far as songwriting is concerned, I have decided to start up this blog where I will post 5 songs a week and talk about them in full detail. Yes, you've read that correctly, 5 songs a week, or 5 songs whenever I feel like it. Basically, I have decided that if I want to write a good song then I'll have to write a bunch of rubbish songs before I get to that golden good one, and to make things interesting for me I have decided to create this little blog to upload all these songs that I have written REGARDLESS of whether I think that they are shit or not. As the blog title suggests, I'm not really holding out for anything inspired. I just need a place where I can write bullshit and be as self indulgent as I want, and this place is it.

Tom Robinson did a lecture at my uni and told us that Carole King woke up every day at 9oclock and wrote songs till 5 then went home and did her thing. Well, I can't wake up at 9oclock but I can write songs whenever I can. Literally, when I'm not drinking/going to uni/ doing uni coursework/eating, writing songs is what I will be doing, and I will upload all these songs on here for your listening pleasure/torture, and like it or not, I will spam your facebook wall with my status updates linking you to these songs.

ON TOP OF THAT: This will be a brilliant place for me to promote any gigs that I've got coming up, and at the moment I've got none, which is really fucking depressing me.

Well, here we go then.
Haydn.
