My name is Hamish Donald; I am 16 years old and I am a singer songwriter from Sevenoaks. I play a few instruments but my main instrument is guitar. I took up the guitar about 4 years ago, however I have been singing for as long as I remember. I have only recently started to write my own songs as before I only really focused on covers. I am now focusing more on writing and I am making progress. Performing is what I most enjoy and want to carry on performing as much as I can. The aim is to carry on writing and performing and see how things go.

I’ve been singing and playing the piano since I was about 4 years old although stopped official training not long after I was 15.  I wrote my first song at 11 years old and have been writing ever since. I try to create songs that reflect true emotions while focusing on lyrical meaning. I’ve taken inspiration from Jazz and Soul genres with influencers such as Amy Winehouse and Jorja Smith, but also find the emotional purity of reggae satisfying and also something I’d like to incorporate into my music. Although mellow and basic, I would like to create a more dense sound in future, using a wider variety of instruments.
