Hello From South Africa

[Josh Hayes]

Hello everybody, my name is Josh. Hailing from the beautiful Cape Town, South Africa.

I thought I may as well use the questions from one of the stickies to guide myself through this rather daunting post.

 

1. Do you sing, play an instrument or instruments?

I sing and play guitar. I can also tinkle on the keys, bang drums and slap the bass a bit. I am mostly self taught from several years ago until now. I have taken my fair share of lessons though.

 

2. Are you in a band or bands?

I am not in a band currently (aside from Sunday services) but I have something in the works...

3. Do you write songs?

I write songs, well I try my best... I guess we all start somewhere.

4. Do you record your music?

I have tinkered with a friend's recording gear. But I don't have anything available yet...

5. What other roles do you perform in the music business?

Does gear-junkie count?

6. Are you a tech head?

 

Unashamedly, yes!

7. What are your ambitions?

 

Front a band and break/come out of South Africa.

8. Do you draw/paint/write stories/computer art/dance or other creative pursuit?

I have mediocre Photoshop skills...

9. What would you like to get out of Songstuff?
 

Hopefully some help, support and a sense of community from a group of like-minded individuals.

 

Thanks for reading, I appreciate it.
