There was three weeks until our headlining gig at the talking heads.
We had about 40 minutes of original songs that we wrote but an hour gig slot to fill. We could pack it out with some covers but that would be to easy, and we don't want to play covers, that's what cover bands do.

Pete our singer turns up for rehearsals with a acoustic guitar, with a quick "what do you guys think of this song I'm been working on" he began to play.
Immediately our ears pricked up.
The genius was in the simplicity and the vocals gave me goose bumps.
Pete was really onto something with this song. We all could tell. It felt so powerful even with just an acoustic and vocals, and catchy as hell.
He shows us the chords and we all started playing it.
Something also happened inside daz.
Our bass player played this riff that drove the whole song and added even more to a great track.
By the end of the night we had pretty much finished the song. It fell together that quick.
Sometimes songwriting can take ages, sometimes everything just works.
This was one of those times where it felt like we could do no wrong.
I'm sure when we show the world for the first time (or at least a few people) at the talking heads later this week it will go down well.
