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?
At home waiting for a show confirmation. Then I was notified that the show was no longer a possibility.
How has that affected your plans for the coming year? Did you have a tour planned, upcoming album release?
We had quite a busy festival season. Obviously that was no longer happening so it was a bit of a shift to say the least. The music thankfully did noy suffer nearly as much. So you can say it had moderate effects on me.
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?
Well luckily I still work a day job. That does help keep me at ease. I think it has helped me tremendously and believe that is the key to staying calm through all this. Keep the brain stimulated and keep busy anyway you can. Obviously not everyone has the luxury of working right now but there is more than one way to fill the time given.
How are dealing with the Covid second wave?
The same way as the first one. Just doing my part and keeping calm. I try not to comment too much on Covid. I am not a doctor, I'm just so guy with a guitar.
Favourite Starlite Room Moment?
This interview and honour.
Do you have a message for everyone at home reading this?
Smile. Life is not easy by design, but that doesn't mean we cannot enjoy it anyway.
