The five participants of the Music On Bowen camp, led by John Stiver and Stephen Fisk, wrote and recorded three songs within the course of five days last week.
“When we were writing the songs, we would start with a drum beat or a guitar riff, build it from there and at the end I’d add in the melody and lyrics,” says singer Aine Corrigan-Frost.
Corrigan-Frost adds that the guidance offered by Stiver and Fisk was a huge help.
“The way Steve looks at music, it’s like he can see it as a physical thing. And John is my guitar teacher, I really love working with him. He’s a really great writing influence.”
