Sie kennen sich von der Uni und machen zusammen Musik. Da hieß die Band noch nicht „Stargroves“ und Teddy Watson wollte einfach nur mit ein paar Freunden seine selbst geschriebenen Songs live spielen.
Warum das Jahr 2012 der Wendepunkt war und für den Studenten aus New York ausgerechnet ein Aufenthalt in Reykjavik den kreativen Schub brachte, erzählt Teddy Watson im Interview mit Feuilletonscout.
Feuilletonscout: At what age did you start making music?
Teddy Watson: My parents put me in piano lessons from a very young age, and I began writing my own songs when I was 12 or 13.
Feuilletonscout: And when did you decide to turn music into your profession?
Teddy Watson: Music was always something I did for fun, whenever I had free time. After I moved to New York I really started putting a lot of time and energy into the band, I’d say that’s when it really became my full time commitment
Feuilletonscout: How and when did you start Stargroves?
Teddy Watson: Stargroves evolved over several years. It began when I put together a group of guys to play some of my songs at live shows (it wasn’t even called Stargroves yet). As the project grew and developed we changed up the members over time and worked on new material. Stargroves today is a just a refined and developed version of that original group.Weiterlesen »Ein Moment mit … Teddy Watson, Gründer und Frontman der jungen Band Stargroves
