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 had just moved to Toronto, living my best life with a full-time job, contracts on the way and gigs around town. Believe it or not this body was once thriving haha.
How has that affected your plans for the coming year? Did you have a tour planned, upcoming album release?
I actually would’ve been in and out of LA a few times to write and visit friends, done a few contracts with Drayton Entertainment, and then at the end of this year I want to throw a birthday showcase were a bunch of my friends and I perform. However, it’s not looking too good with the current status of the world...
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 been writing a ton of music by myself, via zoom with friends. I also recently bought equipment and rearranged my basement to become my home gym and studio. I’m extremely pleased to have a place other than my room to feel like I’m actually going places!
How are dealing with the Covid second wave?
Truly taking the time to learn more about myself. What I like, what I dislike. Ordering in A LOT (to support local restaurants of course), and once again creating more music and visuals to go along with them.
Favourite Starlite Room Moment?
When I was asked to be artist of the day!! Are you kidding?!
Do you have a message for everyone at home reading this?
Dear people reading at home,
We got this.
I know this has sucked, but soon enough we’ll be able to hang out, hug and jam again! Stay safe, stay sane, and stay home.
PS stay tuned every month for more music on my socials!
You are worthy, you are loved and you are perfectly you. 🌈
