This week I began to look at the lyrics James Bay writes and I have been trying to write in the style of him as his lyrics seem to reference love at lot. Week 2: The task for this week was to write a song with only one chord, however I kept at my sound of 2015 song. ![]() The chords that James uses are F, A#, C and the chords that I used are G, D, A. I ended up transposing the chords that he used to create a backing track with acoustic guitar on Garageband I also used the same structure as the song as I thought it would be the best way to incorporate the style of James Bay into the song. I am going to try and write a song based on James Bays song Hold Back the River as I really like the sound of it and it’s quite a simple song to play. I started to look at a few chords on guitar and just see how I would be playing them. I am stuck between using James Bay and Years & Years because I quite like what both artists do, but I feel like James Bay would be more of a challenge for me and it will give me a chance to learn how to play the guitar. Week 1: In this first week I have been looking at various artists from the BBC Sound of 2015 and just seeing who I think I could take inspiration from and write a song that was similar to the style that they write.
