The story.
Where Paper Lanterns comes from.
This is a sample profile. A songwriter who started with a borrowed guitar and a notebook of voice memos, now writing songs about small towns and long drives home.
- Why I make music
- Sample answer. Writing is how I make sense of leaving the town I grew up in.
- The hard season
- Sample answer. Two years of open mics where nobody stayed for the second song.
- Off stage
- Sample answer. Long walks, old paperbacks and fixing up a 1970s guitar.
