“I don't eat eggs.”

“I want everything to build and create a massive artwork composed of different songs, colors, physical art and visuals.”

“I like the idea of experimenting with all sorts of themes and just feeling free creatively.”

“I always take notes on my phone of lyric ideas.”

“Being able to chuck ideas around and bounce ideas off each other with anyone I'm working with is just something I love to do, that's how most of these ideas are formed.”

“There are songs from dreams that I had. Relationships, I get a lot of inspo from those. I mean, I've written a song about a spider. It comes from everywhere.”

“I love making videos for my music, you can literally do anything. It's like you can write a song about anything; you can also write a video that is the weirdest thing you can relate to the song, and I find that quite cool.”

“Taking risks is the best thing ever, and that's what gets you anywhere.”

“I call everything Steve. Since I was little, I'd go on, like, holiday and call hermit crabs Steve. And I still do. I'll name a snail Steve. Everything is called Steve in my world. My car is also called Steve.”

“I played around with GarageBand before, but I'd never actually made a proper song. So it was getting into the studio with him where I made my first proper song. I've always loved creative writing, so I had done that as well.”

“I love to play around and have fun with my lyrics, but sometimes the messages are raw, and I also like to get emotional with them.”

“I wrote 'Evil Spider' about wanting someone that's already taken. I guess it was based on a personal experience, but I went a lil extreme on the theme... me being a spider trying to snare someone. In real life, I was just observing!”

“I'm not a naturally funny person, and I also can't dance, so I feel like I'm lacking the key things that you need to make a good Tik Tok video.”

“People often reach out and comment on how they relate to my lyrics, which makes me feel very warm inside.”

“I think the States is a huge part of the music industry worldwide. There are so many other artists and music industry people here, so I think to be working my audience here is definitely a go.”

“I started posting a few covers on SoundCloud in 2017, and that got me into contact with my producer who I still work with, Josh Fountain.”

“Honestly, I'm the worst storyteller ever. Like, I just take so long.”

“There's always space for me to grow and I think that experimenting and making mistakes is gonna get me to this position where I'm trying to be is always changing.”

“I think some songs on the EP, especially one called 'Blu', I've allowed myself to become vulnerable and express more of my sadder emotions.”

“I like the idea of blending genres.”
