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 Mexico touring and performing, living there for the winter. I chose to come back early, since all my shows were suddenly cancelled.
How has that affected your plans for the coming months? Did you have a tour planned, upcoming album release?
Yes, my new album- Korinnya (meaning 'roots' in Ukrainian) was scheduled for release this Summer. Because some of files were at different studios and not completed, it seriously delayed my final production and mixes, hence will postpone the release to the fall. Hopefully I will be able to do a little tour at the least.
What have you been doing to fill/make the most of your new-found free time at home?
I have taken up a new instrument- Bandura and find myself able to catch up with this fast-paced music life of constant product and promo. It's nice to just jam with other musicians in the park and enjoy the Summer.
What was the first thing you did/place you went to now the country is starting to slowly re-open?
I started going to parks since they were not closed. I went to my first pub on a patio with a friend the other day to enjoy a drink there. That was nice.
Favourite Starlite Room Moment?
oh wow, since I live in Montreal its been a long time since I hung out there, but I definitely remember dancing to some great music.
Do you have a message for everyone at home reading this?
Keep your immune system up and Question everything!
