Last night whilst in the shower I had a lightbulb moment.
I'll explain in a minute.
Recently I've started getting an itch to start working on music properly again, and I'd actually wanted to write a blog explaining why I stopped in the first place, but spare time being so rare for me at the moment, I haven't had a chance to yet - but I will.
Just recently my Drewvis facebook page has been receiving a number of new views and likes (no idea why!) and it's actually been niggling away in my head and finally made me want to actually finish the new album I wrote over a year ago.
A recent visit from my good friends Natalie Wouldn't from Seattle has also ignited something in me again (they always seem to do that!) and so not only am I now gearing up to get the new album finished, there's also serious talk of starting a new band with some of the closer members of Second Time Lucky.
This is a big thing.
For all of us.
It will make more sense to anyone else out there when I actually get around to writing my 'why I fell out of love with music' blog post soon.
But trust me, it's a big step, and a big deal.
So, going back to my lightbulb moment in the shower last night...
When I was at BIMM (Brighton Institute of Modern Music) doing my songwriting degree back in 2009 I received some feedback and suggestions about one of my songs (Short Measures) which at the time made no sense to me at all, I was happy with how it sounded and it's structure etc. and that was how it should be. But the feedback has always stayed in my head, and I've always tried to understand how it could possibly be of any use. Seven years later... it was last night in the shower that it finally made sense to me... I will explain what the heck I'm yabbering on about, but not now.
You'll have to wait until you hear the new version of it! ;)
And just on the off chance you read this blog and haven't heard my music... here's the last album:
