Working on a new single right now that I’m really excited for! It’s a more upbeat kinda bluesy honky tonkin’ number

What inspired you to pursue a career in music and when did you know?

I think I always knew. But I think the biggest influence was the cross generational aspect. Hearing old records that still made me feel alive as a young one, and then playing old songs that had the same effect in old people, it’s kind of this space that exists out of time in some ways. Maybe gives you a sense of immortality in a way.

 If you weren’t pursuing a career in music, what would you be doing for a living?

Well I’m also a barber by trade, I like that job good enough! It’s a good gig, you meet lots of people and have good conversations all day

What is your favorite downtime activity?

Oh my, any down time I get I end up working on more music stuff! I like to record friends projects for fun, and other more experimental music here and there. And when the surf is good you can find me out at the beach!

Shania Twain, is that even a question?

Big Eyes by Tim Burton, great movie

What is the last album you listened to?

A compilation by the Fireballs. They’re an excellent, excellent instrumental group.

If you could only listen to one album for the rest of your life, what would it be?

It would have to be Cool Water by Son’s Of The Pioneers (the 1959 version) it is really a work of classical art by my standards. And it has a cool Atlantic Canadian connection which hits home for me.

 What is the greatest country song of all time?

Sanford Clark’s “It’s Nothing To Me” checks all my boxes

What has been your favorite city/town that you’ve visited out on the road?
