I’m a 21 year singer/songwriter based in Malta.
I consider myself to be a very optimistic person when it comes to life. I appreciate little things that other people would not notice, because I think that it’s the little details that matter, in everything that we do.
I remember when I first picked up a guitar when I was 13 years old, learning how to play it was not a plan of mine… until I strummed one that I found in an empty hotel conference hall. I did not know anything about it, but I knew that I connected with it. I wrote my first song that night.... (read the rest in the long description).
Hello! Nice to ‘meet’ you. I’m a 20 year old guy living in a beautiful little island in the middle of the Mediterranean. I’m a very optimistic person when it comes to life. I appreciate little things that other people would not notice, because I think that it’s the little details that matter, in everything that we do.
I remember when I first picked up a guitar when I was 13 years old, learning how to play it was not a plan of mine… until I strummed one that I found in an empty hotel conference hall. I did not know anything about it, but I knew that I connected with it. I wrote my first song that night.
Writing and singing music is remedy to me. If I’m feeling terrible about something, and I write a song about it, the moment I finish the last line, I’d immediately feel better. It’s weird. I write about things I go through or stories that impact me, whether it be something positive, negative, exciting and pretty much anything that has to do with feelings. My friends tell me that I hide things away from them because I usually never speak about my personal life, but they don’t know that I just poured my heart out about something the night before. I kind of get over it, you know? It’s like writing in your diary but with melodies and chords.
I have been dreaming of calling music my full-time job since that day I wrote my first song. The idea of being able to share your music to the world and have it help people get through something, or just simply put a smile on someone’s face is, for me, the ultimate feeling. Performing to people who will forget about the things that affected them that day, and sing along with you until the very last note is what I want to do every single day of my life.
There is a lot more that I want to say, but I’ll save it for other times. I hope that you’ve managed to know me a bit better. Thank you for making me happy and I hope that my music makes you feel something.
Oh and I forgot to mention.... My name is Bahjat.
