Please tell our readers who you are and what you do?
I am a 21 year old artist/music producer who lives and breathes music. I make music mainly in my spare time due to having a full time job that requires me to work forty-plus hours a week. That being said, my occupation involves me working with music and people. I work at a Residential drug and alcohol treatment center that is based on helping people recovery from their addictions through the power of music. I am constantly working on new projects when I am not at work. I am a multi talents musician playing all of the instruments that you hear in my tracks. I love to employee different genres and see what all sides of music have to offer me. I love to be creative as well as collaborate with other artists. Music is my passion and it is the one thing that drives me to be the best that I can be in life.
How would you describe your influences and how have they changed over the years?
I grew up listening to almost every genre, from classic rock, rock, hip hop, and anything else in between. Jimi Hendrix, Stevie Ray Vaughn, Pink Floyd, and many others are just a few artists who influenced me at such a young age. Since I have grown I have started to explore my taste in music. At the moment, I am more in engaged in making electronic/feel good music. M83, Gryffin, Ayokay, Quinn XCII, Odezsa, and The Glass Animals are a few of the artists who have recently inspired me to dive into this genre. As the years have gone by my taste has changed a little bit, but I still remain true to my roots when I pick up a guitar. There’s nothing like jamming to some classic rock with another fellow musician.
What´s new right now?
Right now I centering my work on creating new music. I am still in the very beginning on my music career and I still plan on exploring what type of music that fits me best. I intend on relasing songs as the sounds come to me and will try to create something new every month. As far as live shows go, I have not moved towards having any live sets yet, but that’s not to say if the opportunity comes up that I won’t act on it. I really look forward to what the future holds and seeing where the music takes me.
