I was terrible at singing! It’s still not that great now, I ain’t no Whitney Houston! I do my best and it seems to work! (laughs) When I started to learn those instruments, the poems, and raps that I did slowly transitioned into singing. I started out with poems it wasn’t necessarily songs. Transitioning from playing those instruments into writing, at which point did you start putting pen to paper and writing your own material? But I do remember growing up and listening to a lot of Rihanna and Adele, ‘Disturbia’ was a big one and Adele’s ‘19’ album. It was terrible! (laughs) But, Carole King, Stevie Nicks, The Carpenters, and a load of older stuff I grew up on.

Literally! ‘Baby’ was my jam! Just so I felt like I did him justice I wrote all the words down on paper, I couldn’t write properly at this point so there were no spaces in between each word and I misspelt everything. We’ve all been there, I definitely had a poster of him on my wall when I was younger! (laughs) Not going to lie, the first album I bought was Justin Bieber… – In terms of influence, who did you listen to? He was the first ever influence musically without a doubt!įast forward, you’ve grown up a bit more and started discovering your own music. I grew up around music and definitely followed in his footsteps. My aunty played the guitar, but I have never seen someone play the piano like I did my grandad. Yes! He would play the piano and the guitar was my kinda thing. I’ve read that you started playing both the piano and guitar after seeing your Grandad play would you say he was an early influence musically?
