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 was just getting back from Ireland when the world changed. I remember watching the news and seeing the events take place in China never thinking it would actually makes it’s way across the globe so quickly.
How has that affected your plans for the coming year? Did you have a tour planned, upcoming album release?
Things have definitely been delayed. An album that should have been completed in 2020 is now slated for 2021. 50-60 shows a year down to none was a hard hit in 2020. I sure hope to recover in the next year or two.
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?
It was filled with learning technology and being able to connect with people via the internet to do events, song wrote with others , steam interviews , record and the list goes on and on....
How are dealing with the Covid third wave?
The third wave hit NS hard. We have been in a lockdown for 4 weeks and it has been draining for everyone. However it seems things are starting to improve and we should see some restrictions lifted very soon. We have all soldiered on everyday. Kindness , patience and compassion for myself and everyone else has been the key to getting through this hopefully last major lock down.
Do you have a message for everyone at home reading this?
Stay safe & hopefully we can get together again soon.
