Biography
S S Jones was born in '87 in a place where he's never lived, and has been living in a place where he's been born a few times, in Gloucestershire, England. Currently an undergraduate, he has dreams in abundance.
He has written for a long time, and has now turned to lyrics, but admittedly has "little musical ability and not much confidence"...perhaps this will change. Perhaps he will be a pure songwriter, writing for other peoples music and performance.

He has been influenced on the poetry side by W.S. Graham, Norman MacCaig, Hart Crane, G. M. Hopkins, George Herbert, Seamus Heany and a host of others.
On the musical side he likes anything with soul and meat on, his favourite band being The Triffids, favourite songwriter Richard Thompson.
He said to me once: "If people gain nothing else from looking at my page, they should make the gain of checking these great artists/craftsmen out".
