It was just another form of therapy. It’s been a cathartic process. I don’t work in a professional manner, I do it to heal something – whatever that is. I got a lot of anger out and I’m on the other side of it now. It’s taken a lot to get there.” He added: “I’ve dealt with it, and the music was just one of many processes that repaired me as a person. The music started out quite vengeful and ended in a happy place, just being happy and privileged to make an album.” ‘Things People Want’ comes accompanied by a tripped video created by Dan W. Jacobs – who has worked with everyone from Metallica to Money. Paul Draper’s upcoming UK tour dates are below.
