In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. I was pulled toward music at an early age after singing to my mom when she was bedridden for 2 years unable to walk from a car accident. Once better, she took me to a retirement home to sing. I saw the change I could make on the listeners' faces. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Harry Styles, Fine Line Hozier, Hozier Maggie Rogers, Heard It In A Past Life Hoziers self titled album inspired me to write my first song I would ever share on digital distribution. Heard It In a Past Life I vibed with and felt my artistry was similar. Harry's House really had an impact on me due to its joyful feel. 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. “Sun's Always Shining” I chose “Sun’s Always Shining” because it reminds me the people you love can make even the most ordinary days feel meaningful. I wrote it to hold onto light, especially in heavier seasons. A reminder that sun is always shining behind the clouds! What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? The most memorable moments in my career so far has been getting the chance to open for Gladys Knight, Mat Kearney and playing the same music festival as some of my musical inspirations - Brandi Carlile and City and Colour. Also, American Idol 2018. Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? My ultimate bucket list wish is to play an arena tour someday, preferably with one of my long time musical inspirations.
