In August last year I was in a coma due to status epilepticus. After many months I met with my critical care doctor who said creative things or puzzles would help heal my brain and get me out of my brain fog, so I turned to poetry as this has always been a good outlet for me. One of my poems is now a song, fully fledged and ready to fly the nest on March 26th - purple day (international epilepsy awareness day) My YouTube is - @DOINGJUSTFINE-MUSIC My SoundCloud is - @DOINGJUSTFINE I’ll see you all there on march 26th, much love, Rhi x

Hey @Lauren Harrison Are you down in Brighton for making another track soon?

Am due to add a track for the guild, my question is do we keep the writers royalties?

Say hi, introduce yourself and share some music or your stories. Also maybe tell us what tracks you loved when your were very young? And what is your favourite animal? The track on the piano was written by my friend Christine Leach, and I'm playing it in my home studio. The other one, on 12string guitar, is called Untitled II and performed in my old flat some time ago. My name is Tom Burton. I am from Brighton UK. I live and breathe music. It is like my autonomic nervous system. Most people call me a singer or singer/songwriter but I am also mad love with guitars. I dreamed as a kid of having a grand piano and I got one in 2018 and built a music studio with my own hands for it. I got into music because of The Beatles and tracks like Help, We Can Work It Out, Norwegian Wood, You've Got To Hide Your Love Away, Let It Be and so many more..... I love my piano and Tori Amos, Benjamin Clementine, Fine Young Cannibals. I make a full living from music as an artist but also a promoter and producer. Music is therapy for me and I have many health challenges which music overcomes for me. I used to be a nurse, and I like helping people make a living with music, particularly people living with challenges but all our friends and allies too! ❤️🎸🎤🎹 I love cats particularly my cat Kenzie! I like otherworldly things, science, meditation, Dr Joe Dispenza, Robert Monroe, and keeping fit and eating healthy. I love my two sons who are four and five right now. I am passionate around causes and people related to epilepsy and diabetes. I am classically trained on guitar but self taught on everything else. I look forward to talking and collaboration with everyone here.
