How did you write that song Ryland Newstead?

Ryland Newstead has been writing songs for most of his life. Inspired initially by his musical heroes The Beatles and Oasis, Ryland tried to play their songs but wasn't happy with the result. So he decided he needed to write his own songs in his own style whilst applying what he'd learned from the greats. In this episode Ryland takes us through his songwriting journey which includes a lot of jamming, singing random words and recognising those moments when something musically clicks with an idea or story in his head. He suggests once you've got an idea, don't lose the moment and keep pushing through.
