Define your genre in five words or less.
Pop/rock with country/blues.
Bearing the terrible clichéd nature of this question, what do you reckon people will say you sound like?
I’ve been told that if Keith Urban, John Mayer, Jason Mraz and Jim Adkins had a baby, I would be the result. I don’t know about physically though.
What do you love about making music?
I love how you can take a simple thought, event, or emotion and then it becomes a timeline in your life where you look back and go “Oh this song is about that time when I tripped on the treadmill and broke my headphones.”
What’ve you got to sell CD-wise?
I’ve just released my debut single Closer Now which is available on iTunes, and has been featured on radio nationally the last few weeks
.
How long have you been gigging and writing?
I’ve been writing songs for the last ten years with previous bands, but as a solo artist I’ve been writing for the last five years.
What inspires or has influenced your music the most? For me it’s my own personal life experiences, every day and every moment brings me something new. It’s so weird, if something affects me deeply, a song will write itself and takes its own journey which can be scary but great at the same time.
Why should everyone come and see your band?
My female backing vocalist is ridiculously hot and we both dance like idiots. Best part about it, is that we’re sober.
When are you playing live/releasing your album/EP/single/etc.? We’re holding a single launch show for Closer Now on Wednesday August 29 at The Workers Club here in Melbourne, with my good friend Emmy Bryce and Lucy B so I’m super stoked!
What part of making music excites you the most? I can easily say I get most excited when I’ve just written a song, we’re at the rehearsal room, guitar in hand and plugged in, and we’re jamming it out for the first time. I get absolutely high from it!
