Darren ,December 06

My story so far

Hi my name is Darren, i have been recording now for a few months and undertaking many levels of voice coaching mainly at quince studios, London with my voice coach Mia, ah Mia thanks for all the work you put in to getting me where i am now it means the world to me and Matt thanks for being there and believing in me.
I have always had this inner self want and hunger to become a performer in the music industry even though many people who know me well will find this a shock as i never really opened up and make known my dreams due to the fact of the biggest fear being failure. Well failure is no longer such a problem as i have so many friends who are willing to support me now and a great coach who aspires to everything i do....thanks a million!
Well where am i at this moment in time in such a time, im currently seeking out a band which is not only appropriate but which sees the type of music in the same way as i do which im told is an extremely hard combination to find. Life is in my eyes a very uncontrollable "being" and you can live your life afraid of what it may bring, as i did or you can embrace it and say well if thats the way it is bring it on!
Going up to London for the first time to record was un doubtedly not without its trials and nerve racking moments but i have no regrets at all i needed professional opinions, as even though i felt so strongly in my heart that i was destined to become something there was always that little part of me that thought otherwise. I have always sang songs even from a very young age but never openly on such a level of attempting to record.
Inspiration as in most things is a must and where one draws their goals from and for me mainly has been Darren Hayes/Savage garden this music is so easy to relate to and for me represents my life growing up and understanding myself from a relationship sense mostly and dealing with any trouble and turmoil that gets thrown at you.
My earliest memory of the feeling of me matching up to my destiny or that de ja vu feeling was as a child going to see a concert for the very first time and seeing an artist perform on stage and i remember looking at the audiences faces and seeing the joy on their faces and them screaming back, and instead of being the one screaming i wanted to be the one screamed at, i wanted to be in his shoes. I am so aware of the fact that their will always be someone in the que for fame and celebrity which is something to me seen as very fickle as i know in this industry they go hand in hand, - " we take someone, put them on a pedestool and look up at them as we need people to look up to but then after a while we like to see them fall from grace as it makes us feel better about ourselves". This to me is so true.
Well its getting late now so i think im gonna have to draw to a close but ill keep you all updated with progress soon ok but till then take care dx
