In the artist’s words:
Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. One of my earliest musical memories is tuning in late at night to a live tribute concert for Ray Charles after he died. All these incredibly gifted artists playing soul and blues and country - who was this guy they were deifying? The genius himself.
What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Bob Dylan, The Band, The Basement Tapes The Beatles, Revolver Van Morrison, Moondance (Expanded Edition) They span so much of my musical influences whilst on their own accord being wonderful works of art. Each artist's voice comes through with truth and orginality in a way that you feel they want to be respresented.
What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? Being nominated for a Grammy in 2021 has to be a career highlight.
Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? My dream is to play the Pyramid Stage at Glastonbury. Since I was a tennager, it has been a Mecca of sorts for me. The atmosphere and diversity of artists, the power it has culturally and the privilege in giving people a set they won't forget.
