Artist Biography
In the artist’s words:
Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. My bedroom was next to the living room where my Dad played records loudly when I was trying to sleep. I grew up falling asleep to The Beatles and Irish folk music, and I think they got under my skin.
What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? DakhaBrakha, Alambari Elbow, AUDIO VERTIGO Jo Beth Young, Broken Spells I love new music and I love live music. These three albums are from concerts in the last six months that have blown me away, and they're all artists who have influenced how I write music.
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. “Stunt Double (feat. My Girl The River)” My brother Dave is an emergency relief driver in Ukraine, who lost his eye doing his job. I wrote this to tell him how proud I am, and how scared.
What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? They say "never meet your heroes". Well, I met mine, singer songwriter Boo Hewerdine, and my knees shook and I couldn't say anything. He then went on to produce two of my records, and to this day still says "why won't you obey me?"
Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? There are so many brilliant artists working right now, and there are a load I'd love to collaborate or write with. I would name them, but I fear I'd jinx it.
