In the artist’s words:
Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. I was recording at Electric Lady studio in New York, and I was using some guitar pedals I'd found lying around. As I was recording the guitars, I turned around and Lou Reed was watching me and said " Nice sound you got" They were his pedals.
What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? T. Rex, Electric Warrior (Expanded Edition) 2003 Remaster XTC, Skylarking (Remastered) Yes, Fragile I love these 3 albums, because they are very British sounding and pastoral. Whenever I need some comfort in life, T Rex in particular warms my heart and makes me feel close to my English roots.
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. “Love Among The Ruins” This is a song from the Downes Braide Association album Halcyon Hymns. I love the sentiment of this song, and the whole feel of it. It reminds me of a perfect time in life, when I was younger. One of the best things Geoff and I have done together.
What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? When Sia and I wrote Unstoppable in my studio, we had a feeling that we had written something big, but it became a hit that took on a life of its own. I'm proud of all the songs Sia and I wrote together, but this one is special, and we felt it.
Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? I'm pretty fulfilled with my career in music, but I would love to work with the producer - Mutt Lange. The greatest producer of the 1980s in my opinion. Epic!
