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 in the process of mastering my recent album. Thankfully the completion of my project was not affected much by the pandemic but I had to figure out other ways for promoting and presenting my new album with my audience.
How has that affected your plans for the coming months? Did you have a tour planned, upcoming album release?
I didn't have a tour planned but I was planning to have a CD release concert. I released the album online. But I also had a small, outdoor, socially distanced CD release concert in September.
What have you been doing to fill/make the most of your new-found free time at home?
I hasn't been much free time actually since I have been finishing up my PhD in engineering and started a new job in September. But I still try to make time for music.
What was the first thing you did/place you went to now the country is starting to slowly re-open?
Me and my wife had a nice trip to Jasper for a few days.
Favourite Starlite Room Moment?
Playing with Bardic Form as a guest artist opening for Tequila Mockingbird Orchestra. It was an amazing show!
Do you have a message for everyone at home reading this?
Eat well, cook more, and take naps :)
