Blues & Soul have just published a great new interview with Nathan Watson, who talks in-depth about his recently-released Student of Life EP.
Says Nathan on songwriting:
“I write all of my songs. Nowadays I have always my iphone with me so I can jot down notes on that. I am inspired by everything; I can see a situation that a friend is going through and write about it. Some of my songs are about other peoples experiences not always mine; I would say 80% of my songs are about me.”

Also, as mentioned in the interview, Nathan will be playing at London’s Bush Hall on March 24th, alongside Alex Cube for Jazz FM!
