In the artist’s words:
Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. I remember trying to produce my first song, at the time I was heavily inspired by Kygo and Calvin Harris, and it sounded horrible but all I could feel was immense joy because I learned that I can make whatever kind of sound I wanted.
What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? AJR, The Maybe Man HYBS, Making Steak ZHU, Generationwhy Each of these albums have such a distinct and masterfully crafted sound that has influenced every song I have ever produced and written. They all bring me such fond memories and I love just dancing and singing along to each of them.
Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Lost (In the Moment)” This is one of those songs that when you just create it, you cannot stop smiling. Lost (In the Moment) brought such a smile to my face when I wrote it as it was about a special moment about a special person in my life at the time.
What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? Playing my songs for my freinds and family and just seeing their reactions.
