So I've had songs that started out as being about the environment and ended up being love songs and love songs that ended up being about the environment. I've had things that I thought would be a poem and realized that it was just too big for that. I've got to do something larger and it became a play.

“We singer-songwriter people, we're used to getting up and doing our own thing in front of people, and we're it. We're the band, artist, writer, producer, front man. We're the whole thing. You develop, it's not smugness, but this self-reliance, that can limit your creativity. When you're willing and able to invite others into it, you wind up getting a piece of work that's bigger and better than anything you ever imagined it could be.” PeopleMenWritingSelfWholeAbleUsedArtistCreativityPiecesFrontsWillingWindBandLimitsBiggerSingersProducersSongwritingInvitesSongwritersSelf RelianceRelianceSinger SongwritersBigger And BetterSmugness Author:Andy Wilkinson
