Adam Wedd On the Making Of ‘Pumpkin Pi’

Can you talk about any specific themes or motifs that run throughout 'Pumpkin Pi?'

For me, this record is about feeling all cosy in the autumn timez reflecting on the year so far with a nice warm chai latte! There’s a song about Buffy the Vampire Slayer, divorced dad's, political instability and being your own best friend in the themes. Each song is a juicy slice of pi!

Were there any memorable or standout moments during the recording sessions for this EP?

Recording with my mate Marc Solomon in Los Angeles at his studio in Hollywood. He's a top producer and amazing songwriter himself and all around lovely bloke.

Which song(s) from the EP do you think best represents your artistic vision?

“Holiday in my mind,” a bit of folk, a twinkle of gospel, a dash of rock and something we can all sing together.

Can you share a bit about your musical background and the journey that led you to where you are today?

I write songs to help me understand my thoughts and feelings.. ever since I was 7 years old I function best as a human when I'm being creative and probably a little nicer to be around. I feel like an introvert dressed as an extrovert.

Where do you find inspiration for your songs or musical ideas?
