Who are
your main influences musically?
No one in particular. When learning I started playing all the 70s rock classics (Led Zep, Thin Lizzy) along with some Guns n Roses and Jimi Hendrix. But as I started to perform, I've gotten more into current artists such as Ed Sheeran, Ben Howard, The Script, Jason Mraz, and Arctic Monkeys. These are all acts I perform when doing cover gigs. I would say I'm sort of a mixture of them.

What do
you hope to achieve in music?
Well, we can all dream and say we want to make it all the way but realistically I would love a full-time career out of it but still be able to write and perform my own work. Hopefully I'm still performing when I'm old!

And what’s
the moment you want to forget?
All the times my system starts throwing too much feed back at full volume! Apart from that there have been no regrettable moments so far.

If you
could choose one of your songs as an advert for your music, what would it be
and why?
I have a song named Busker Man about all the buskers I see when out and about. It’s a bright sounding song with a catchy chorus. My other songs have a downer feel to them but I want to try to write more similar to this brighter sound.
