What made you fall in love with music?
Music has been a part of my life since I was little. It started as break dancing at family reunions and that evolved into me becoming a musician/songwriter. For me, music has always been the catalyst for expressing emotion, sharing perspectives, and giving life to imagination. I made the decision to stake my career in these ideals and that’s what brought me to NSAI.
Who’s your favorite artist/band?
I’m a fan of everything but my 5 pillars are Prince/Alicia Keys/Anderson Paak/ Drake White/The Backseat Lovers. Aside from loving their music these artists have influenced me in some form or fashion, whether it’s as a musician, a writer, or as a person.
Favorite restaurant in Nashville?
Reds Hot Chicken!! The crunch wrap will bring a tear to your eye!
