Spelfout - STRESS

When I moved from a very small town to real city, I barely had any friends there, so I decided to buy a guitar. I liked It so much that I wanted to do as much as possible with it. Then I started writing some lyrics and try to mix them together. Then there was a 'learn to play in a band' project I signed up for. With this project I got some coaching on the way to the first live-gig. This is where finding friends and getting connected really started to happen.

We played a few gigs after this band project, but then the girl bass player and I decided to start a new band with more dedication. Here I started singing or rapping as well. This band is called 'Spelfout' wich is Dutch for 'Spelling Mistake' but you can also see it as 'Game Mistake' because we tend to deny the 'rules' for music. It's Dutch pop/rock, with some rap flavours. Tho we didn't bring out any music, we were able to gain some experience by playing live gigs, including some nice festivals. At a certain point we re-arranged the band, to be more dedicated again. We still play live gigs with this band, and we're patiently working towards recording our first EP and attending some band battles.

Meanwhile I've always felt writing in English was also nice. I've had a lot of song ideas, but most of them where always small concepts. I've done a small hand full of solo performances with these songs and I want to improve in this. Therefore I'd like to share ideas on this page and get in touch for getting feedback etc.
