In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. Growing up in the EDM scene, my world changed when I visited my uncle in the USA. Hearing a raw country guitar for the first time felt like coming home—it was the moment I realized storytelling through music was my true calling. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Avicii, Avicii Forever Carly Pearce, we don't fight anymore (feat. Chris Stapleton) - Single Keith Urban, Keith Urban These artists masterfully blend traditional country roots with modern dancepop sensibilities, which deeply inspires my own cross-continental 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. “Would You Love Me (Radiocut)” This track is my anthem of authenticity. It’s the result of producing remotely between the US and Austria, blending my dance roots with the honest 'twang' of country music to celebrate the freedom of finally being my true self. What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? Starting my own band in the States was a turning point. But the most powerful moment was finishing my first country track remotely with my Austrian producer—it proved that music and a message of love have no borders Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? I want to perform at a major country festival as an advocate for love and equality. My dream is to bridge the gap between the European and American country scenes, showing that this genre belongs to everyone, everywhere.
