What’s the story behind your latest song/album?
The story is pretty simple, it’s about not losing hope in anything, when you know that quitting is the easiest thing to do. A shared human emotion.
How has your creative process evolved over the years?
Honestly, just always trying to stay humble to the sounds and letting them dictate where I should be taking them.
Is there a specific moment in your career that felt like a turning point?
Right now.
What’s one misconception people have about being a musician?
That if you’re able to play an instrument or write a song, it’s gonna be easy.
Who or what has been inspiring your music lately?
Life, everything.
Can you share a memorable or unexpected moment from a live performance?
Yeah one time I broke several strings on my guitar and didn’t have a backup. Unfortunately, this happened on the first song, probably in the first minute or so. I played the rest of the song on the lower strings, which sounded like absolute shit. Thankfully, the band we were opening for let me use their guitar for the rest of the set. That sucked.
How do you handle creative blocks or self-doubt?
I don’t experience creative blocks per se, but self doubt comes in all the time. This is why I wrote “Losing Faith In Everything And Emptied On I-10”.
If you could collaborate with any artist, living or dead, who would it be and why?
Prince because I wanna learn and absorb everything from him.
What’s a piece of advice you wish you had received earlier in your career?
Someone telling me that the music industry is not the cool community, where everyones supporting one another, that it seems to give off.
What’s next for you—any exciting projects or goals on the horizon?
More bangers around the corner!
