Jamie T forms covers band
By CMU Editorial | Published on Thursday 26 November 2009
Jamie T has announced that he is considering forming a covers band to play some gigs while he takes a break from writing his own material.
He told BBC 6music: “I seem to spend a lot of time talking about starting a covers band at the moment, which I’m thinking of doing with a couple of friends. We’ve done a lot of music over the past year, we’ve written a lot and I think we are coming to the end of a phase of that I suppose. Maybe it’s time to stop writing for a bit. As strange as that sounds, sometimes you need to collect your thoughts a bit before writing, so I think a covers band might be fun. I don’t think we’ll get into the studio. I think we’re just going to play some shows. I think it’s just more for the sake of having fun and going out and playing it”.
