In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. I first saw Itszak Perlman play the violin with the Wichita Symphony, and that inspired me to want to play the violin. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Antal Doráti, London Symphony Orchestra, Beethoven's 7th Beck, Sea Change The Beatles, The Beatles (The White Album) Love the string arranging on Sea Change. Love the beauty of the Beethoven, and the Beatles, what more do you need to say? 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. “Take the Evening Air” I have always loved playing music with Colin Stetson. He is an inspirational composer and friend. I love music scoring and to be a part of a scoring team. What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? This time that is currently happening is the most memorable. Not because it's the closest in time, but because its a true personal renaissance. We are in the midst of something here with the Nashville Collective. Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? I want to play more live to audiences that are enthusiastic about what it is that I'm putting out there. I've played in the studio for the last 10 years, and I believe its time to do more in addition to the studio work.
