I recently set to work on creating a Biography for my various music and social pages, which was not an easy task.
It's always strange writing about one's self and can become a total narcissistic cringe fest if you get too carried away.

I hopefully found a good balance between promotion and self indulgence, with some impressive language features for the literacy experts among us.

So here's my biography for you to persue, any feedback is most welcome as long as it's 'Constructive Criticism'

Derbyshire based Musician and Songwriter Darren Claxton, defies being pigeonholed, and celebrates the fact that each song tells a story and in a style all of its own. On his various music pages, you'll find songs of universal resonance that are accessible, yet never overly polished for the commercial market.

Darren was born of a need to write and perform original music across multiple genres. Catch any of his live performances and you'll find him moving seamlessly from folk, to indie, to blues, to heart-warming and immersive acoustic ballads. Yet it all manages to sound effortless and natural -- "strangely familiar" as one fan once called it.

Darren strives for his compositions to have memorable hooks and melodies that stand on their own, creating a strong musical foundation for his compelling heart felt lyrics. Darren says it’s all about the song and the emotion conveyed through the stories he tells. His music provides a “just right” touch of colour to support the emotional core of each song.
