For our third session all the tracks structures and lyrics were complete and we went into the session with the intention of getting all of the track’s drums completed.

However, after having complete the first track’s drums it became obvious that there we a few things that needed addressing with regards to how I was going about singing. We spent a substantial amount of time talking about how I can approach singing throughout my life – the fact that I’m most likely not going to be a vocalist who wants to utilise the full extent of their octave range, for example, or want the sing particular dramatic. But, however, most singers aren’t like this. If you listen to Beck, Paul Banks (Interpol), Bob Dylan – none of these guys have particularly great singing voices. They do, however, have distinctive singing voices, which is what Pete was putting forward to me. He challenged me to become much more confident in how I sing, not being hesitant but embracing a unique sense of my voice that can be a staple of my music.

From here, we agreed that for the next time I head down to Nottingham (15/03/17) we will complete the drum demos for the rest of the tracks, which would allow us to rehearse in our own time for when it comes time to record at the beginning of April.
