Tell me about how you originally got into your craft.
My mother taught me to play guitar and sing in harmony. Out of her nine children, I was her protégé, so she constantly encouraged me to refine my singing and songwriting skills. I have had a very interesting life so far, which has given me some excellent material to write songs about.
What is your favorite thing to do in the whole wide world?
Spending time with my daughter doing something she finds thrilling.
What is your biggest challenge when it comes to running your business?
Balancing the need to play late nights with family life
When you were a kid, what did you think you were going to be when you grew up?
An astronaut and inventor - I still haven't given up on this!

What other artists out there do you love?
Pink Floyd, Simon and Garfunkel, Radiohead, The Beatles, U2, Nirvana, Alice in Chains, Chris Cornell, Jeff Buckley, etc. etc.
