Songwriting

The key to creativity is an open mind and diversity. Bob Dylan and Neil Young are my two favourite song writers. I am also inspired by Tom Petty and the Heart Breakers.

Try to have as many song projects as possible running at once, as you can link one project to another one. There is no one approach to song writing, its about inspiration and also hard work.

It's good to include as many musical styles as possible; Rock, Pop, Regae, Funk, Blues etc.

American culture and especially the music can be such an inspiration.
