Welcome! I just joined today as well, and I love the UK. I worked with a record label in London for a while, so it feels a little like a second home, although I'm in Canada.
I came to Steemit with about.. 1400 followers? So pretty similar? :)
Looking forward to hearing some of your stuff!
Hey Kay, thank you. Had to a listen to your stuff. You've got a beautiful voice, who inspires your music?
Thanks @elyar. I know the quality isn't great yet (I'll be working on that, but sometimes you just need to get started), but I really appreciate the positive feedback so far. I love a lot of the 90s singer-songwriters: Jewel, Tracy Chapman, Ani DeFranco.. most of the "Women & Songs" franchise.. And current singer-songwriters like The Civil Wars, Gabrielle Aplin, Brooke Fraser. Also the incomparable Bruce Cockburn for lyrics! And tons of poets. I write a lot of poetry as well.
What about you??
