On this episode of Mouth-Off I chat to AL STEELE, JAMES WARREN of THE KORGIS, and author, lyricist, disability rights activist and MOTIVATIONAL SPEAKER & AAC USER, GAVIN CLIFTON.AL, JAMES, and GAVIN each bring a unique perspective on CREATIVITY, SONGWRITING, and the power of MUSIC to connect people. GAVIN collaborates with host CLARY SADDLER through WORD GROOVE COLLECTIVE, where he writes lyrics and advocates for greater ACCESSIBILITY and representation for people who use AUGMENTATIVE AND ALTERNATIVE COMMUNICATION (AAC).We get to here their creative journeys, the stories behind their work, and the ways music can inspire, challenge, and bring people together. We also explore a wide range of topics including SONGWRITING, SYNC PLACEMENT, COLLABORATION, the changing MUSIC INDUSTRY, DISABILITY RIGHTS, ACCESSIBILITY IN THE ARTS, creative influences, and the importance of finding and maintaining your own ARTISTIC VOICE.We also play a round of "SYNC OR SINK?", putting our guests' music industry instincts to the test, and delve into the world of DIEGETIC and NON-DIEGETIC MUSIC, exploring how music functions within film, television, and other media.It's a lively and thought-provoking conversation packed with insights, humour, industry knowledge, and plenty of musical stories along the way.ACKNOWLEDGEMENTSIntro Music - Clary SaddlerDance on a Volcano - Al SteeleIf I Had You - James WarrenWhen Doves Cry - PrinceWorld Full of Dreams - Gavin Clifton and Al SteeleThese Wings - Gavin Clifton and Clary SaddlerFast and Loose - Gavin Clifton, Al Steele and James WarrenFragments - Clary SaddlerTick Tock - Clary SaddlerA Pembrokeshire Farm - Al SteeleTerry Jones and the Great Map Mystery - Al SteeleEverybody's Got to Hurt Sometime - James WarrenHot-Wired - Gavin Clifton and Clary SaddlerCartoon World - Al Steele and James WarrenShould I Stay or Should I Go? - Mick Jones and Joe StrummerLet's Build a God Game - Al SteeleMorning After - Gavin Clifton and Clary SaddlerOutro Music - Clary SaddlerSOCIAL MEDIA AND MUSIC LINKSGavin Clifton / The Disabled Writerhttps://www.thedisabledwriter.co.uk/Al Steelehttps://alsteele.name/James Warren / The Korgishttps://thekorgis.com/meet-the-bandWord Groove CollectiveSoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/wordgroovecollectiveFacebook: Word Groove CollectiveClary Saddler / Mouth-Off / Forget-Me-Not Productionshttps://linktr.ee/clarysaddler
