The Bent Strings are:
Paul Mckendrick
Just a rough mix of songs, I'm still fairly new to songwriting and recording. Patience and Persistence are not to be underated. Actually I'm beginning to realize that I love the songwriting process, it's recording that I'm not too fond of. However, there are usually nice surprises along the way.
The songs have timing errors; I hope to someday go into a studio and record an EP with some very talented friends. Anyone wishing to do a cover or remix is welcome, just send me an email.

Why this name?
A picture I took of my Niece (Pam) and Nephew (Jamie) playing ukulele
Do you play live?
Not at the moment
How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
It has changed for the better. I'm now hearing a variety of music that was never available before. It's also nice to hear talented artist in their developing stages. It certainly has come a long way from trying to tune into distant FM stations late at night.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
I know that's not realistic.
I would be more interested in someone doing a cover for whatever reason. Just send me an email.
