In the artist’s words:
Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. My brother in law introduced me to most of the songwriters that I later obsessed over. When I was 14 he would leave CDs off at the house for me with notes attached, like homework, for me to focus on or particularly pay attention to.
What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Mitski, Be the Cowboy Sufjan Stevens, Carrie & Lowell The Strokes, Is This It The Strokes - Is This It. This album defined my teen years Mitski - Be The Cowboy. A perfect pop album. She is a generational artist Sufjan Stevens - Carrie & Lowell. The most heartbreaking and thematically cohesive album I have ever heard.
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. “Shame” It is the song that has defined my career. The BIG one. The song that allowed me to become a full time songwriter and musician. I am grateful to it
What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? I would have to say being invited by Willie Nelson to play the Luck Reunion Festival at his ranch in Texas is a particular highlight and surreal experience all round
Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? I would love to continuously evolve as an artist, to never chase relevancy, but to push myself and other artists that I am fortunate enough to work with to put honesty on the page
