In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. I remember spending my childhood summers in Ireland and one of my cousins there is a magnificent musician and he brought over his guitars and a mandolin and was letting me toy around with them. I wanted to be like him. I wanted that power and talent. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Bruce Springsteen, Darkness on the Edge of Town The War on Drugs, Lost In the Dream U2, The Joshua Tree Remastered Synthesizers, ambient guitars, big drums, saxophone, and cinematic lyrics. These albums are some of my foundational influences for both writing and production. I lose myself within them and find acceptance and my place in their worlds. 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. “Still Were Us” Not a love song but a recollection of a different time. During a period where I felt truly lost and aimlessly wandering.. I felt as if I understood myself better in my teens before I had so much to worry about. When life seemed still discoverable. What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? I toured with 'Somebody's Child" on their North American Tour in 2023. We played the big cities like BOS and NYC. The energy in those rooms and the fans I met gave me reassurance and hope that I'm on the right path. Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? LONDON. DUBLIN. MEXICO CITY. RIO DE JANEIRO. TOKOYO. SYDNEY. JOHANNESBURG. MUMBAI. THE WHOLE WORLD.
