In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. My early memories of music are all of my parents. My Mum sings and Dad plays guitars and they used to rehearse in the flat I grew up in together. I can remember being very small and hearing their music echo through the house. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Angie McMahon, Light, Dark, Light Again Tom Waits, Closing Time (Remastered) Villagers, Where Have You Been All My Life? 1 - A new discovery, I haven't connected with an album so deeply in a long time as this. 2 - A classic albums I was raised on, so much soul from early Waits 3 - I'll forever hold this in my mind as the most important album in my life (so far) 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. “Summer” This is one of the first songs I ever wrote. I was about 15 or 16. Teenage me would be absolutely mind blown to find out how many people this song has reached / connected with! What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? Winning the Glastonbury Emerging Talent Competition in 2022 is an obvious one. The entire experience was so bizarre and amazing for me, especially so early on in my career. I'll never forget the feeling in the room at the final, totally electric.
