Notes about Jonathan Cavier's general creative process:
* Likes to write his songs in the winter.
* He enjoys repurposing old recorded ideas to bring him out of writers block when he cant think of anything new at that moment.
* Lots of his songs are not "true to his life" because he enjoys making up scenarios or using real scenarios outside of his experience to use as song topics.
* He likes to create a hybrid of electronic and natural instruments when constructing his songs in the studio.
* Has built his songwriting technique around the particular combination of gear he is used to using.
Habits outside of music that help him become a better musician and songwriter:
* Spends his mornings playing tennis or engaging in some kind of physical exercise to get his mind off of everything else and to condition his body for the demands of performing.
* Tennis allows him to build up a good habit of depending on him to overcome a task or obstacle.
Jonathan's Inspirators (past and present influences):
* Kiss
* Paul Stanley (Mentor)
* Cheap Trick
* Robin Zander (Mentor)
* Japan
* Steve Jansen (Mentor)
* David Sylvian (Mentor)
* Iva Davies of Icehouse
* Taylor Swift
* Demi Lavato
