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

Music is everything in life for me since it touched my soul when I was a kid. It gives me strength to keep going till the end, it gives me hope when I'm down and about to give up, it makes me happy and sad at the same time, I love playing guitar and hate it so much when I mess up. Music is the light that still makes me human.

What is your music dream?

Playing in front of a crowd of maybe 100k or more that would be nice. To learn a few classical pieces that I find somewhat impossible.

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

I have no idea.

Which is the most memorable song from your childhood?

X men theme song and probably The Simpsons theme song too.

Who are your favorite musical artists or bands?

Jason Becker hands down way ahead of his time. Metallica was a big part of my teen years and a few other thrash bands. But now Animals as Leaders is insanely good, I love Tribal Tech, Scott Henderson is one of the most versatile guitarist ever.

What inspires you to make music?

Now my depression mostly but music just comes randomly I could be just doing laundry and the washing machine makes me groove so I would say life in general.

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

Nothing fancy just to have a good time I guess and enjoyment.

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

Drained like my energy left my body but nervous and excited at the same time.

How do you see the musicians’ reality nowadays? What could be improved?

Is sad to see the struggle for most is hard so I'm not sure what could be done to improve something that is so corrupted like the music industry its really hard to say.

What do you think of Drooble?

Just like FB at least the way it feel to go through it, seems cool probably need more experience using it.

What frustrates you most as a musician?

Gig that don't pay enough or not at all.

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

I use to but now there are a few bands so if I can I go the shows but if I can't well that sucks.

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

Music Knowledge or a Background in music would help I think I'm not sure really.
