12: Do Happy Or Sad People Make Better Music?

About this episode

Welcome to Justin Hawkins Rides Again...the podcast. In this episode we are discussing the trope of the “Tormented Artist”. Does all of the greatest music and songwriting come from being in pain and having a chaotic life or can you make great songs and whilst being happy and content? Am I a happy songwriter or do I battle or even fetishise the idea of being a tormented artist?

I take on the role as the “tormented artist” and Jenny May Finn my producer takes on the role of the “happy artist” to see if we can represent both sides during this debate.

I’m really pleased with this episode, it gets pretty deep and serious in parts so I hope you can listen in full.
