So let's get started...
What is your personal relationship to music?
-I have a great relationship with music! I think music is a beautiful thing. Through music people can express themselves and show their true colors.
What are your goals as far as a music career?
- I just want people worldwide to enjoy my music as much as I enjoy playing it.
You have a really creative lyrical style, who are your influences?
-I write a lot of love songs haha, so my main influences in writing are Christofer Drew of Never Shout Never and John Mayer.
Why Youtube? What made you start uploading videos?
-I have always loved the music side of YouTube! I just love how people from all over can come and listen to my music! I actually have had my YouTube account since about 2010 and my friend and I would upload videos of us chasing each other around with nerf guns. It wasn't until about a little less then a year ago when I decided to put my music on there. I was into Bob Dylan a lot at the time and Chris [Drew] was covering a bunch of his songs so I decided to give it a go and cover "Blowing in the wind" everyone really enjoyed so I just continued with videos from there.
In five years time, what do you hope to accomplish? What are your goals, both in and out of music?
-In five years I want to have a full length album out, have a national tour and maybe a hit or two on Itunes. I would really like to just travel around the world for a couple months too. Other then that I'm just going with the flow.
Do you do anything else in the music field?
-Well I started off playing piano when I was younger but I moved away from that and onto guitar when I reached middle school. I would love to start playing piano again! Its such a beautiful instrument.
Was it always music for you? Or have you pursued other things?
-I wanted to be an astronaut when I was younger but I've kinda moved away from that. Up until high school I wasn't really sure about what I wanted to do, but I've come to realize that music is what I want to do. It's kinda "cliche" to say this but life is too short to be doing something you don't enjoy. That's why I have chosen music because I love doing it.
Anything to say to the readers?
-Anyone reading and supporting thank you so much! Keep spreading the word and just enjoy the music!
