Hi my peeps!
I am waist deep in the joys of album-writing-land at the moment. This is my favourite part of being an artist… the creating! When I get in the flow I really throw myself heart and soul in. It’s nice to put aside the promotion side of my career and really focus on what attracted me to music in the first place. I’m really enjoying making music for music’s sake, the honesty of that, the digging deep and not focusing on my own image and how I present my songs but on the making of the actual material. It’s a time to think outside of the box. To challenge my self. To get inspired.
I’ve been looking through old record shops, tearing out pages from fashion mags, thumbing through art that says something like Banksy's stuff and doing my own photography, dreaming up ideas and seeing what they inspire. I’m also inspired by the people I collaborate with: Danielle Brisebois and John Shanks – both insanely talented! Wycleff – he is so wise! Estelle my Brit Sista who also had a massive hit in ....U.S..... radio last year like me is pictured below… I wrote with Sam Sparro... love him. Sia, such a truly beautiful soul. She’s one of my favourite artists. At this stage it’s all about just writing and collaboration and making music I’m into.
Thank you all for your patience! Especially those fans in ..Europe.., waiting patiently while I've been away in the states. I’m still part way through making this album so it won’t be until the end of the year that I start really introducing it. But, I promise to try to keep you included in the process and progress over the next half a year.
By the way some of my friends have told me I have a twitter imposter who keeps posting silly messages pretending to be me. Make sure when you sign up to my twitter you check it is my official one. I only just started using it so there’s not much on it yet. But, just saying…my twitter name is natashabdnfield.
Love you all!!
