Artist Biography
In the artist’s words:
Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. 8 year old in the car with my dad and listening to Lynyrd Skynyrd 'Free Bird' - I loved it so much I made my dad play it over 10 times in a row. This is the moment I decided to become a musician!
What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Lauryn Hill, The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill The Beatles, Rubber Soul The Verve, Urban Hymns These three albums were albums that made me want to make music for a living. After hearing these albums I knew it's what I wanted to do for the rest of my life.
Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Prism of Love (feat. JONES)” The first song I released and it will always hold a special place in my heart It was never initially written to be released writing it was a form of therapy to help me through a difficult time. It got picked up by Noisey and now has over 10m streams
What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? Having my song Prism of Love synced on the final Episode of Ginny and Georgia and on a Love Island fire pit Scene!
