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

Music to me is a way to understand and relate to people; and a way to help people in tough times. Or a way to enjoy the good. And everything in-between. It gives me my purpose in life almost.

What is your music dream?

I'd like to change the way the world looks at things. If my story helps someone or makes them smile that's all that matters to me.

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

I would probably find a way to end all the suffering and pain in the world. Or at least find a way to help with that.

Which is the most memorable song from your childhood?

Marty Robbins, the song "El Paso" I just remember admiring the way the music flowed so we'll and imagining the lyrics as a movie haha

That no matter what happens, no matter what your going through, I'll be here with you. And that life is worth the ride.

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

I've only really preformed at church and at school, so I'm not sure to tell the truth I like it though haha

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

In one hand you don't need a label as much as you did before the 2010s or even the 2000s but at the same time without a label it's harder to to get exposure on a larger scale at a rapid rate.

What do you think of Drooble?

It's great

What frustrates you most as a musician?

Playing a song perfect when practicing but messing it up completely when I go to either record or show someone.

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

I have a blog about indie music, but the last few times I've tried to update my website it wouldn't let me post.

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

Sense of self, uniqueness, kindness maybe
