What project(s) are you currently working on?

Just about to release my new single “My Old Street”, getting back together with my old band who will be supporting me at some of my bigger gigs. I also have some new singles in the works with my team in Nashville.

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

I have always been a singer from a very young age, my dad and uncle played guitar so I always wanted to as well but it really progressed from helping my friend write his songs in my late teens, or test them at least, we then played an open mic together and got offered a gig at the end of it, 16 years later I’m still writing and performing in my spare time.
