Nathan Lomas
I began writing/recording back in 2012. I’ve always loved the idea of songwriting and how it is limitless, you can write a song 50 different ways. I am a solo artist, so i write and play all the parts to my songs. I guess it works best as i can play what i hear in my head.
Sometimes parts can take weeks to come together, its all about patience…
What song of yours is the one you like the most?
– My best song is definitely Far From You. You can listen/buy it on iTunes.
What influences do you have?
– I listen to so many different artists. I’d have to say Dave Grohl is a massive influence of mine. Just how passionate he is about music inspires me all the time. Another would be Anthony Green. His lyrical abilities are amazing. Acoustically i love City and Colour, his songwriting capabilities are so genuine.
What´s the best experience you have had with your project?
– Being able to meet so many amazing people through my music. So of the best experiences of my life have been playing gigs/hanging out with people who just love music. What else could you ask for?
What plans do you have this year?
– I’m currently recording my debut EP ‘Stupid Things’ to be released later this year. I’ve got all brand new material on it that is by far the best I’ve ever written. I can’t wait to share it with everyone.
Mention something you don´t like about your project.
– I sometimes feel like because i write all the songs/music, it can get a bit boring/similar to myself and others. I constantly look for new ways to write a song. I don’t believe in the “formula” writing of a song. A song should come straight from your soul, you should be able to listen back to it and think “wow did i really write this”.
A song should come straight from your soul, you should be able to listen back to it and think “wow did i really write this”…
Mention the biggest sacrifice you did for your project.
– Spend hours upon hours just in my room writing/recording. Sometimes parts can take weeks to come together, its all about patience.
What band, music project or solist from your city do you like?
– I love the local band FACADES. Their debut album recently came out on iTunes, definitely check out their song ‘All In Good Time’.
If your project was a word, what would it be?
– Real. Everything about what i write/play is real.
Who answered these questions?
– The only member in this band Nathan Lomas haha. Its where i usually am, at my desk writing music.
