Describe your sound in 3 words:
Vulnerable, Chill, Genuine
Tell us a few things about your new song ‘Break My Heart’. What is the main idea behind it?
My debut single ‘Break My Heart’ is a true story song inspired by my 10-year relationship ending abruptly one month before our wedding. Its the sonic representation of human fragility that touches on loss, self reflection, and healing from it. I used the pain from loss to fire a dream and hope that my story can inspire others to do the same. Life is too fucking short man, chase that shit and don’t look back!
Which is your most personal and honest lyric?
I really try to be vulnerable in everything I write. I feel the most personal and honest lyric in ‘Break My Heart’ specifically is “I know our shit got crazy baby, I barely got through, and thats the truth. I almost killed myself over you”. I hit an all-time low and the moment I decided the life was worth living I wrote this song and jumped in the studio. I genuinely was struggling with purpose when I was going through the experience and in the process of healing I found that spreading love is my purpose. I hope my art continues do that even when I can’t physically be present.
What do you enjoy most? Writing music or performing your music live?
That’s an interesting questions because they both have there perks. Writing really helps get my shit out, find balance and perspective but there is nothing like the energy of being on stage performing. If I’m being completely honest, performing scares the shit out of me every time I’m about to go on stage. But while I am up there nothing else exists in that moment and thats a special feeling that can’t be replicated.
What would you change in the music industry?
I love love so I think the only thing I would change about the industry is to see more unconditional love and support for each other. We’re all just chasing a dream and watching friends succeed is so inspiring.
In which state of mind do you imagine people might listen to your music?
‘Break My Heart’ is about heart break and I feel it’s a song that people would listen to when they really want to dig deep and feel into their feelings. I like to mix it up though. No one wants to be sad all the time! haha I dig writing upbeat vibes as well. My second single ‘Stumble’ which comes out March 4th is chill and fun.
What is the most useless talent you have?
Haha fuck I don’t know. Uhm…. I’m pretty good at beer pong!
Thank you!
