In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. I started learning Beethoven's "Fur Elise" at my mother's friends house by ear at the age of four. I was self-taught on piano, guitar, bass, and drums until I attended jazz classes in community college. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? D'Angelo and The Vanguard, Black Messiah Kendrick Lamar, To Pimp a Butterfly Miles Davis, The Complete Bitches Brew Sessions These albums represent a time in my life where I was fascinated by every sound coming out of my speakers, headphones, or car stereo system. These albums shaped me as an artist, songwriter, composer and let me know how great music can really sound. 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. “Then, I Thought About You” This song is my favorite from the Oceanside album! It really shows how i bring together my love of jazz, funk, hip hop, classical and rock music and meld it into my unique sound! Go listen a hundred times! My take on this classic jazz tune.
