Biography
My name is Callum Hendry, I have lived in London , most of my life. I relocated to Wick , North Scotland , UK in 2000 and have been based there since. Since the year 2001 , I have been having professional music productions of my songs by various US music production demo services. In the fall of 2001, I had one of my songs played on Moray Firth Radio. This is a Acoustic Rock song called ' I Shiver ' . It was produced by Jeff Severson , at his studio in Arlington , Virginia , USA. A session singer sung it.
In the beginning of the year 2002 , I was offered a publishing contract for a Modern Rock song called ' Addicted ' by DSM Producers ( a Publisher and Film / TV Licensing company) . This song was also sung by a session singer. This song was produced by Kyle Ashley , at his studio in Florida , USA. In September , 2004 , I signed a songwriter contract for a song called ' She Carried Herself Well ' , with the Paramount Group ( www.paramountsong.com ), a music company based in Nashville , USA , that specialises in pitching songs to the music industry in USA.
The Paramount Group only work with you , if they think your lyrics , have hit potential.You have to submit your lyrics through their website and they let you know by letter , if your lyrics have hit potential.In October , 2004 , I signed another songwriter contract with the Paramount Group , for two songs called ' Spread Your Love Over Me ' and ' Your Face Is My Favourite Picture Of Art.' The song called ' Your Face Is My Favorite Picture of Art ' is on a compilation CD called ' Catch A Rising Star ' , the Paramount Group co-writer played their demos they had done over a year to a panel of music professionals and the music professionals voted this song as one of the very best. David Spak sung the vocals , as well as produced ' Your Face Is My Favorite Picture Of Art ' and also composed the music.( www.DavidSpak.com ) This song is done in a Country Rock style.

Over the years I've been getting my songs done by various demo services in the USA and UK. The styles I've done my songs in are Rock , Dance , Country , Electronic / Dance and R&B/Pop. I've found these demo services on the internet. I have nearly all the backing tracks to all my songs.

Two years ago I spent a lot of money on music equipment , such as a Rode NT2 microphone , an expensive studio microphone cable made by Monster Cable and a Focusrite Mic Pre amp. I also bought Making Waves ( a British sequencer ) for my computer because I read on www.makingwavesaudio.com , that Daniel Bedingfield uses Making Waves.
