In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. When I was about five years old, I heard my dad playing The White Stripes in the car. When we got home, I promptly asked him for all of his White Stripes CDs and I gave them back about two years later. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Jeff Rosenstock, WORRY. The Copyrights, North Sentinel Island The Fratellis, Costello Music They're perfect albums. Not sure what else there is to say. Listen to them. 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. “Foot Tambourine” This was the first song of mine that really landed at an open mic in college. It opened my mind towards leaning into musical comedy and grabbing people's attention with unexpected songwriting. What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? I opened for a comedy show in an underground bar in NYC that also sold weed out of the dressing room. Loved it. Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? Yes I would like one million billion streams and a worldwide arena tour
