1. How does it feel to go from being a member of a band to a solo artist? Refreshing because now the focus and the work ethic is all on me. I have only myself to depend on and not anyone else. I am really looking forward to the long journey ahead!
2. As you start your own solo career, what are you hoping to accomplish? I just want to be touring around, seeing new places and people and to hopefully make people happy with the content I have.
3. What are you hoping people learn about you through your music? I want people to learn the more outgoing but also softer side to my personality through my music.
4. Are you working on any projects at the moment that you could tell us about? I’m currently in the process of filming a new reality TV show called Stage School. 🙂
5. While creating your music and unique sound, where do you pull inspiration from? I get a lot inspiration from old school bands like NSYNC and The Backstreet Boys but also current artists like The Weeknd and Chris Brown.
6. We know you have a lot of fans that adore you, what do your fans mean to you? The fans mean the world to me because without them I don’t know where I would be.
7. Being a young guy in your early twenties, how do you balance a social life and a career? I think being the same person I was before the music helps, as well as my fans being so incredible. I know my personality so well and would never change, so it’s easy to juggle both
8. When you’re not creating music, what do you like to do in your free time? I mostly like to go to the gym, play a bit of golf and ride my motocross bike.
9. What’s one thing most people don’t know about you? I guess one thing is that I’m a very superstitious person!
10. What is your favorite song at the moment and why? It would have to be Wicked Games by The Weeknd. It’s just a brilliantly structured song.
