In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. I remember "camping out" in the basement of my childhood home. I slept with the radio on and Jewel's "You Were Meant For Me" came on. I leapt up and started jumping on the bed, feeling on fire from the way that song hit me. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Fleetwood Mac, Rumours Florence + the Machine, Lungs John Mayer, Continuum These albums feel timeless to me. There is a rawness and depth in the lyrics, arrangements, and musicality. They get under my skin. I could listen to these albums over and over, front to back and still feel overwhelmed by the way they hit me. 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. “Under My Skin” Under My Skin will always be special as the first single from my first album. In writing this song I found peace in a difficult relationship and I found my voice. It was the start of a new chapter and of finding my joy state of mind. What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? I will never forget being discovered for my first big festival lineup from a crappy YouTube video. The quality was terrible and I was out of key, but the festival director saw my ability to perform. That assured me progress > perfection! Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? I want to perform at the legendary venues where I've always dreamed of attending concerts - Red Rocks and Madison Square Garden just to name a few! Stick with me!
