Where are you from?
I was born in Los Angeles, California, but moved to England when I was still a baby. My parents areEnglish and Ive spent most of my life in England.
How long have you been making music?
Ever since I can remember. My real passion for music ignited at 9 when I was first bought a guitar. Since then its been my sole focus and goal
How many songs /albums have you released to date?
I have released 5 EP’s to date, but I’m almost finishedworking on my debut album which will be released next year.
Can you tell us about your latest release and the background and inspirations behind it? [https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0qcJf43nAcpag0mEQb9nWT?si=cHMBdvu_RkmKIKMeMHjE5Q]
I am currently putting out a series of covers of my all time favorite songs to introduce people to my sound. These are songs that inspired a complete dedication in me to create music for the rest of my life. They are timeless classics that will live on so long as there are ears to listen.
How have you ended up in the music industry?
It's been my goal ever since I was a child to be a rock star. I used to be afraid to admit that. But it's the driving force behind everything I do.
What do you think of the current state of the music industry?
I don’t think people respect art as much as they should. We have a huge responsibility to inspire with a positive message and energy. I don’t believe that many modern artists are in the music industry for the right reasons, or that their intentions are pure. But despite this, I think there is huge potential for great music to be created. There are always glimmers of light.
Who do you think is the most influential artist?
Thats an impossible question. Every artist is informed by an other, so I guess you would have to trace it back to some cave man banging rocks with a stick. Pink Floyd, Bob Marley, Aretha Franklin, and Frank Ocean are a few of mine.
Who have you collaborated with so far in your career?
I once jammed with David Gilmour around an old fireplace in Wales. That was a truly unforgettable moment.
How do you think you differ from other artists?
Because I am me. Pure and unadulterated. No one else is me, or ever will be.
Dead or alive, who would be your dream collaboration?
David Gilmour. He doesn’trealise it yet, but somehow, if there’s a big dose of divine intervention i'll get one of his guitar solos on a song.
What was the first album you bought?
By The Way by Red Hot Chilli Peppers
What’s your favourite song at the moment?
What other hobbies or interests do you have?
I do a lot of drawing and painting. Recently I’ve really gotten into the wonders of Photoshop. It blows my mind everyday. Meditation and yoga also play a big role in my life.
Tell us more about your upcoming project or this new project?
My debut album is a journey through the year. Its twelve songs, split into 4 EP’s, each named after a season (Winter, Spring, Summer, Fall) and the music matches the vibe of each season. We are releasing it as the seasons roll out in 2020
What’s in the pipeline after this project?
Global domination of course ;) Followed by opening peoples eyes to organic living, sustainability, renewable energy, and a future that looks bright...
