| 'Grayling' is the primary outlet for Me (Nelson Walkom). I grew up in the east of Melbourne and that's where I remain for the time being, living with my buddies in Croydon. i've been playing guitar and writing for Rock/Funk/Punk bands ever since I was 14 and i've studied some classical music earlier on, and also love making phat grimey electro beats on the side, so my style is pretty eclectic but I like to think that my songs are distinctive and instantly recognisable. I was always writing solo material since day 1, recording strange little Cd's of ideas and weird instrumentals which has now developed into having a home studio from which I still record and produce all my music. as the years go on I've found myself more interested in the art of song writing & composition rather than being a virtuoso at any one instrument, which make the lyrics in my songs a main focal point. my stuff can seem a bit dark and gritty, but it is always in good nature and with a bit of tongue in cheek. hope you dig it! -Nels |
