With the current pandemic, the state of the music and touring industry has dramatically changed. Where were you when everything was brought to a halt? 

I consider myself lucky to have found a silver lining at the time the pandemic started. Because we were all stuck at home I finally put together a bunch of demos of my songs to send to my producer, and a selection of those demos because the basis of my debut album, Free Times.

How has that affected your plans for the coming year? Did you have a tour planned, upcoming album release?

Right now everything is digital for me, no plans to tour though I’m looking into options for local concerts. When things open up permanently I’d love to go across Canada and play some live shows.

What have you been doing to fill/make the most of your new-found free time at home? How are you supporting your mental health through all of this?

I’m continuing to find more silver linings where I can. Writing new songs has been the best thing for my mental health, so I’m making the most of my time at home in that way. I’m at home listening to new music, I’m also in the studio with my collaborators I’m also inspired to write more.

As things are reopening & restrictions are lifting have you booked any new gigs? Tours? Etc? If your region is still under restriction, how are dealing with the Covid third wave?

For now I’m really staying focused on writing and recording and promoting my music online. I have the time to engage the online community, and I’m also always in conversation with my publicist Eric Alper about ways to help promote my music safely.

Do you have a message for everyone at home reading this?

I have some music out already on all the streaming platforms with plans for a lot more to be released in the months ahead. I’d be most grateful if you’d give it a chance, and if you like it, share with your friends and family. I’d love to hear from you and see you at a show when that’s an option too. Aside from that, I just hope you are all staying healthy and keeping your loved ones close by.
