Congratulations on the release of your latest work, Here for you. What was the song writing process like for the song and did you approach it any differently than your previous releases?

Henry Colin Wright: Thanks! I didn’t change too much from my standard process… although that in itself has changed and grown quite a bit over the last couple years in how I approach songs and doing my own vocals on them. More than anything, I was focused on the meaning of the words in the song. It was cool writing with the words coming from my heart.

Tracks like “Here for you” and “Lonely inside” really highlight your work as a vocalist and really shines brightly. When you are working on tracks like this do you find yourselves find words that rhyme first or is it driven primarily by the meaning of the lyrics?

Henry Colin Wright: To be honest it is a bit of both really, but yeah, I guess I’d say that it is overall primarily driven by the meaning of the lyrics, I always try to make all of my songs as relatable for the listeners as possible. I like to look at it from a listener perspective, like what would I like to here if I were listening to the song. Its important to me to find lyrics with meaning and not just a load of words that fit in time with the music that all rhyme.

It’s clear in your sound that you draw from a variety of musical influences. Which artists or genres have been the most important to you over the years?

Henry Colin Wright: Well as you were saying I like to take inspiration from a variety of musical influences, and I listen to many different genres. The main genre that I enjoy and spend most of my time listening to is just pop music and my very favourite artist of all time is singer-songwriter George Ezra. My favourite song of his is shotgun which came out in 2018. Buy yeah I take inspiration from many other genres and artist as well.

How do you currently view yourself as an artist and where do you see yourself going in the future going in the future?

Henry Colin Wright: Originally, I just saw myself as a beginner, but currently I’d say that I’m an artist who is still very early on in their journey and want to continue working hard and putting the hours in. In answer to your other question, I think that say for example a year from now I hopefully would have released many more song and maybe even have a couple of albums out and maybe even get some other artists to feature of my music. I also have a small business side to my music, I have my own merchandise clothing range for my fans called HCW Clothing and I hope to take that far in the future.
