1. Thank you very much for your time! Before we introduce your new release to our readers – what kind of drink would you recommend to zip on while they listen to your new music?
A: I would personally recommend a coconut rum and Coke to help capture the vibe. The fruitiness of the rum meeting the bubbling of the cola will help you experience the song in full.
2. Please give us an update about – new single, new album, tour dates, new videos?!
A: Patience is the lead single off my upcoming EP. The EP is set to release on September 2nd this year with a big party in Salt Lake City, where I will be debuting the songs live!
3. We live in times of many conspiracy theories. Which, harmless, theory would you wish were true? (For example Dinos living inside Earth or E.T. living in a home in California)
A: I really wish that Bigfoot was real. I mean maybe he/she is. I think it would help explain the missing link in human evolution to some extent. I could go on and on about Bigfoot theories.
4. What fashion style or brand would best describe your music?
A: That’s a hard question. I really love fashion. I love blending masculine and feminine elements of fashion, so I would say my music gives a thrift/antique store indie look mixed with Gucci/Louis Vuitton vibe. A little familiar with a splash of luxury.
5. Tell us more about your songs! Topics! Message!?
A: Patience can be interpreted differently by every listener. When I was writing it, I really kept that in mind. For me the song is about wanting to get married. I’ve been with my boyfriend for about three years now and I’m itching for the next step.
6. Beside music, do you have any special talents?
A: If I’m not writing or performing music, I am usually playing video games or pickle ball. For those unfamiliar with pickle ball, it is basically where ping pong and tennis meet. It’s really fun and I feel like I’m getting good enough to maybe join a small league.
7. Being on stage feels like….!
A: Euphoria. There’s no other feeling that can compare. I could be singing to a crowd of 100 people or 10 people and it still feels the same. The exchange of energy between a performer and a listener is other worldly and in my personal opinion, sacred.
8. How did you learn to sing/ to write/ to play??
A: My parents put me in piano lessons when I was ten years old. I also did community theater and choir at church. From then on, I knew I wanted to do this professionally. I started writing my own songs at thirteen and started producing and recording my songs at fourteen. They were really bad, but I’m still proud of them. All that practice paved the way to where I am now.
9. A question you’d like to answer, but never been asked in an interview before?! + Answer pls
A: It’s funny, but I have never been asked if I think music saved me. I’ve always wanted to talk about that. Growing up, I was the weird kid. I didn’t go out much, I was shy. My social anxiety got the best of me and made me really depressed. But when I played piano or sang on a stage, life seemed to stand still to the point where I could really appreciate the moment. Music and performing gave me purpose. And I hope that my music can give others purpose and joy.
