1. What is the last song/bit of music you heard?
The last bit of music was today's Heardle - 'Bad Day'
2. What is the song you can't get enough of right now?
'Dignity' from Porcupine Tree's latest album
3. What song/band did you just discover and think are great?
About a year ago I discovered Porcupine Tree for myself, after being told about them back in the late 00s, but for some reason didn't really pay much attention then... I am now!!
4. Do you listen to the same song over and over on repeat? Why?
Not since I was a little kid. No song is THAT good that you need to hear it again immediately, especially repeatedly - I think that would actually put me off the song
5. Do you make music, or do you want to?
Yes, I've been in various original music bands since 1983, along with several covers bands/shows. I co-wrote an ARIA (Australia's 'Grammy') award-winning song in the 90s & have wanted to repeat that little bit of success ever since... I don't want to die a one-hit-wonder!!

When I first started making music, that's literally what I was doing - 'making' music, rather than playing it. You don't have to be a virtuoso... Some of the greatest songs of the last 100 years have been written or performed by people with quite limited ability - just the knack of doing something that catches the public's ear.
I had some piano lessons when I was a kid, but most of the instruments I play now, I taught myself just by mucking around on them. If you do something that sounds good to you - chances are it will sound good to someone else too
