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 actually started my journey in music throughout the pandemic. I had always aspired to record and release music, but the pandemic really allowed me the time to grow as an artist and take the plunge into recording and releasing my first single.
How has that affected your plans for the coming year? Did you have a tour planned, upcoming album release?
It’s allowed me to have some time to slow down and focus on creativity. Now I’m just working on developing my skills as a writer and performer and trying to find my sound going forward.
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’ve definitely been focusing on new creative avenues. This includes music, but also painting, styling etc. Also just allowing myself to be still and do less. I think that can be really helpful for mental health as well. We’re always so focused on productivity and sometimes doing less can open the forts to better mental health and increased creativity.
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?
Restrictions are starting to lift in Toronto and there are some shows happening. I don’t have anything set up right now, but I’m looking forward getting some things nailed down for 2022.
Favourite Starlite Room Moment?
N/A but FYI I’m a client if Eric Alper.
Do you have a message for everyone at home reading this?
I’m just really excited and grateful to be starting my journey in music and to receive the support that I have. I encourage everyone to never give up on their dreams and to just go after what you want. You’ve only got one life!
