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

A way to express without saying anything

What is your music dream?

To find an audience that my music resonates with.

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

people should be able to live longer healthier lives

Which is the most memorable song from your childhood?

I wrote a song when i was in elementary school that goes "hope i dont see you later, hope that you get eaten by an alligator" and that always sticks in my head. Also Space Jam by the Quad City DJs

Who are your favorite musical artists or bands?

There are a lot of bands/artists I like and I can't choose... i like hooks i like structure i like lyrics i like bass i like a song you can dance too i like horns when they are used tastefully i like synthesizers i like genre blending

What inspires you to make music?

Everything

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

It depends on how i feel that day

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

I love it, but i don't get to do it much these days.

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

Its an oversaturated marketplace on the national stage. locally is probably your best shot at getting a fan base that will actually support you with tours and stuff. having music online is a necessary thing if you want to get new people to come and see you. my schedule makes it almost impossible for me to play out so most of my music lives online, only for those who stumble upon it. I suppose there isn't much i can suggest in the way of improvement.

What do you think of Drooble?

I'm new so I'll get back to you on that.

What frustrates you most as a musician?

hearing something in my head that i can't reproduce in the studio.

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

not really these days. i used to go to shows and buy bands merch if i liked their music or if i knew them personally. i dont have time to do that anymore, i work and have a child. but in my spare time i still make music every once and a while.

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