On thursday the 22nd of october my band eat dr. ape where interviewed on stirling student radio. It was a very interesting experience as it streched my people skills of communication and approachability. Also as part of the interview we where asked to perform three of our songs acoustically in the studio. This meant that i had to accompany the pieces with a djembe. I feel it was very beneficial to me to have to recreate and adapt the drum parts that I usually played on the kit to a djembe. It made me look at the songs from a new angle and I found it was a very musically challenging task. I think that this was a beneficial experience for my goal of becoming a session musician as it put me out of my comfort zone and put me under pressure to deliver a good performance with little time for preparation. I think that being a session musician will involve being given tasks that you may not consider yourself to be fully proficient with, but you just have to stay confident and focused on playing well and making the performance sound good.
