In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. When I was 5, my mom took me to the American Idol Live Tour for Season 2 cast, and I passed out when Clay Aiken came on. I spent the next 6 months sleeping in an oversized shirt with his face on it. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Bon Iver, 22, A Million Frank Ocean, Blonde Um Jennifer?, Um Comma Jennifer Question Mark Um, Jennifer? is an undeniable force coming for us all and their debut is a beautiful punch in the face. I return again and again to Frank Ocean's storytelling on Blonde. Bon Iver's sonic innovation on 22, A Million is like a flashlight in the dark. 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. “A Christmas Deal (feat. Josh Augustin)” The timeless theme of many Christmas songs is longing for closeness with a loved one. I transferred my loneliness into joy and spat out "A Christmas Deal", an upbeat tale of a lovesick sucker attempting a trade of sorts with Santa Claus. What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? Releasing "World's End" was a really long time coming for me. I've been writing music since age 12, and to finally at 25 take the leap to release something official was just full circle. I'm so proud of that record and ecstatic with the reception. Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? Oh, everything pretty much. Up next is releasing a full-length record and making it available in vinyl.
