What is music to you? What does it give you?

Music to me is a passion, a hobby, an escape and an outlet all in one. Music gives me an oppourtunity to voice myself and my opinions and feelings lyrically and I feel as if i can really let myself go and have fun whilst playing.

What is your music dream?

To revive rock music and have my creations heard by the world. I want to play to sold out crowds and perform to people who share my love for rock and roll and live music.

If you could change the world - what would you start with?

Housing the homeless, raising money for homeless people with the charity 'Musicians Against Homelessness'

Which is the most memorable song from your childhood?

'Another Brick In The Wall - Part 2' By Pink Floyd

Who are your favorite musical artists or bands?

Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Guns N Roses, Fleetwood Mac, Dire Straits, The Who, The Beatles, Tenacious D, Aerosmith, Iron Maiden, Jimi Hendrix etc...

What inspires you to make music?

The Government and Politics deffinately inspire my lyrics, but other than that I'm inspired to make music by some of my favourite bands and also the fact that music that youths listen too today is very similar and I want to break the chain and bring back an era of rock and roll.

What is the message you want to send with your music?

Basically a hard hitting, face melting, corrupting, errupting, explosive message of rock.

How do you feel when you perform in front of an audience?

Speaking for me and the rest of my band, it's a high unachievable by drugs, only from the rush of performing.

What frustrates you most as a musician?

Promoters and venue owners that only care about money intake and not about the talent of a band. You could be the world's worst band but if you have a big audience pull you would get booked for a million gigs, in today's society nothing is about talent or music making skills.

Do you support your local scene as a fan? How?

Of corse, how can you expect yourself as a local band to become successful if you don't support other local musicians aswell. It's about being part of a community. I try to get myself to as many local gigs as I can to hear new and upcoming bands.

What qualities should a musician nowadays have in order to get their music heard by a larger audience?

Not only should they be talented, have immense stage presence and energy, but it is also about being polite, fun, kind and overall being likeable.

Share some awesome artists that we’ve never heard of.

Red Zenith, Tom Lane, Urban Architects, Broken Dawn and Ellie Cleary.
