Music

Interview --- 1.  What was the first instrument you picked up, and how old were you? The first instrument I picked up was a bass guitar. It was a Valentine’s Day party that my mom brought my family to. I really didn’t want to be there, but I ended up meeting one of my best friends there. He was like, “you’re gonna play bass in my band!” I was like, “dude, I’ve never played bass before. I’ve never played anything before.” So he gave

Interview --- 1.  I’m always curious how musicians choose their instruments. What was it about the guitar that drew you in? I had a friend that got me interested in playing, and showed me how to read tabs. I knew there was a guitar at home and I found it. It was under some stuff in a closet. Essentially, having access to the instrument was the main thing that lead me to that. --- 2.  What was the biggest challenge about getting started, and how did

Interview --- 1.  Tell us what your first musical experience was. I’m from an Irish background; Irish family. So, it would’ve been some old Irish folk songs.

Interview --- 1.  What's the biggest surprise about hitting the road that you didn't expect: good or bad? I guess I didn’t expect how the vibe would be completely different at every venue.

It’s always a surprise what you’re gonna get. --- 2.  If you could put anything on a rider with no spending limit, what would it be?

Interview --- 1.  What was your first musical project? My first project was a band called Beside Myself. It was this guy named Ziggy, and my friend Todd. And that was the first time I wrote music. It was the first band I was singing in and writing in, and actually toured. We did a bunch of tours up the west coast, and east from here. --- 2.  What was the hardest thing about getting started in playing music? No one in my family really played music,

Interview --- 1.  We know that being an artist is a lifelong journey. How and when did your journey as a musician begin? I think I was on stage for the first time when I was seven. I was taking singing lessons, and I was singing Part of Your World from The Little Mermaid. My mom forced me to wear a mermaid costume, and I was so fucking embarrassed about it. I remember on that day that I’m never gonna do or wear anything
