“A lot of hidden emotions can expose themselves when writing a song. I’ve always believed that what you suppress will express itself in other areas of your life. It’s great to have an outlet like music for feelings you don’t necessarily want at the time,” he says discussing songwriting. “It definitely starts as just an idea—could be a melody or a chord progression—that we like and want to build from,” he continues about how a personal experience or an idea becomes a song for them. “The song really starts to form meaning when you put lyrics and vocals on top of it.” 📷: @drawingnorth #DrawingNorth #JakeAllen #MichaelPogson #DrewSouthwell http://teenplicity.com/drawing-norths-jake-allen-on-their-upcoming-ep/
