Interview by Sophie Emmett

Hey, how are you today?

I'm good thank you! I finally have a day off which is nice :)

You’ve just dropped your first ever single “Sunrise” how does that feel?

It feels great, I’m so happy it's finally out!

Also your first ever music video, what was it like to be in front of the camera, instead of behind it?

That sounds crazy, it’s actually such a surreal feeling, as yes I am normally behind the camera, it felt weird at times like there were moments where I kept thinking to myself is this really happening haha a lot of “wtf” moments.

Up until now you’ve been known as a creative, working predominately as a stylist, what was it about now, 2023 that made you want to share your passion for music?

I feel like its been a long time coming as music has always been something I wanted to pursue, I had been working behind the scenes on my artistry and music  development for the last few years and I just thought if not now, when you know? It just felt like the right time.

 

“I’d say finally seeing my ideas and creations come to life and then the response and support I’ve been receiving since, I put this song out with 0 expectations but for it to be my first ever single and to get such a positive response, it feels really good, although I am not doing it for that, its nice to know my music is being appreciated and it has touched at least one person.”

Describe your sound in 3 words?

Soulful, warm & lyrical!

What else can we expect from you in 2023?

I am working on a new project, so hopefully next year I can release it :)

My short term goal is to start gigging at local places and
