Don Mai, a singer/songwriter, shares the journey behind the creation of his new single “Stay The Night”.
Don Mai is a singer-songwriter from Melbourne, Australia. His soothing voice with zesty lyrics leaves a long-lasting impression on the minds of the audience. His songs bring a refreshing wave of sound into our lives. His new single “Stay The Night ” will be released on all streaming platforms soon. His work is featured on many music blogs like AAAbackstage, Buzzmusic LA, Music Crowns, Xs Noize, Moggblog, etc.
It all started as a hobby. Don learned to play the piano from a very young age which then developed into a flair for learning guitar, singing/rapping, and eventually writing songs to express his feelings. He is a jack of all trades and a skilled one at that! His perked-up interest in all aspects of music has led him to become a full-fledged singer, writer, and producer for 90% of his songs. Growing up, he had a fickle mind and tried switching to new things out of curiosity which ultimately led him to the conclusion of becoming a singer and entertaining people with thoughtful songs.
Struggle
Being an independent artist is not easy. You wear multiple hats at the same time. You act as your marketer, producer, writer, singer, and manager. Juggling many roles can be overwhelming at times and take a toll on the health of the artist. This is the biggest struggle in the journey of Don.
Nonetheless, he never loses his spirit and keeps adding new skills to his portfolio. Aside from writing, he also creates and edits videos for marketing, does social media management, and focuses on the aim of delivering a top-notch musical experience to the audience at the same time.
Inspiration For Many
Don believes in following the passion and doing whatever the heart desires. If you follow your dreams, there will be no remorse for not trying. Opinion of others should merely serve as a factor in your success as nothing good ever comes from losing confidence on the whim of others.
He tells people to give everything their 100% before surrendering. The best-case scenario is that you will walk away with lessons for life. When you love the work that you do, it becomes more indulgent and pushes you to do better in life and business.
The Mission
Don’s mission is to create songs that bring relatability and catchiness to the audience and make them groove. His songs are derived from real-life scenarios that often occur in the life of every human being. He wants to bring out the emotions and create tunes that people will remember for a lifetime. To achieve that mission, Don brainstorms around different things like feeling, memories, love, happiness, and other emotions and creates songs befitting the appeal. Be on the lookout for Don Mai’s new single, “Stay The Night” which will be released on 22nd October at 12 a.m. Listen to his previous releases here.
