Yeah. So could you even see the end of the audience,

12
00:00:45.000 --> 00:00:47.679
because as far as I saw it, like, I didn't

13
00:00:47.679 --> 00:00:48.200
see anything.

14
00:00:48.240 --> 00:00:50.439
It was just never ending. It was huge. I like,

15
00:00:50.719 --> 00:00:52.960
first song I went up there, it was a big crowd,

16
00:00:53.000 --> 00:00:54.640
and then by the end of the song, I looked

17
00:00:54.679 --> 00:00:56.240
up for my I was on my kit playing and

18
00:00:56.280 --> 00:00:58.280
I looked up and I was like a sea of people.

19
00:00:58.320 --> 00:01:00.240
I was like, oh my god, this is insane. And

20
00:01:00.280 --> 00:01:02.719
so yeah, I'm just super It feels unreal.

21
00:01:02.799 --> 00:01:08.079
Actually, well, let's back up yesterday. Did you ever imagine

22
00:01:08.159 --> 00:01:09.439
that yesterday?

23
00:01:09.760 --> 00:01:11.400
No, I didn't know what to expect. I kind of

24
00:01:11.439 --> 00:01:13.879
like go into everything with like no expectations. I've been

25
00:01:13.920 --> 00:01:15.799
doing this for a long time, so I think it

26
00:01:15.920 --> 00:01:19.840
helps me like having no expectations just in case it's

27
00:01:19.879 --> 00:01:22.760
not what I expected. So but I definitely didn't expect that,

28
00:01:22.959 --> 00:01:24.159
and so I'm very happy.

29
00:01:24.480 --> 00:01:28.439
Yeah, So I definitely agree with you about the expectations. Yeah,

30
00:01:29.079 --> 00:01:32.760
you just go in and do your thing, go into zone,

31
00:01:32.840 --> 00:01:35.040
and not worry about all that other outside.

32
00:01:35.200 --> 00:01:36.760
Sure. Yeah, So.

33
00:01:38.599 --> 00:01:41.920
What was the road that led to Louder than Life? Like, So,

34
00:01:42.640 --> 00:01:45.079
tell me a little bit about your story of the

35
00:01:45.159 --> 00:01:46.640
road to Louder than Life.

36
00:01:47.519 --> 00:01:49.319
The whole story is, I've just been I've been doing

37
00:01:49.400 --> 00:01:51.079
music since I was six. I was in a band

38
00:01:51.120 --> 00:01:53.200
with my two sisters, growing up, in a rock band.

39
00:01:53.519 --> 00:01:56.000
When I turned sixteen, we broke up and I went solo,

40
00:01:56.400 --> 00:01:58.519
kind of did every other genre because rock wasn't really in.

41
00:01:58.719 --> 00:02:00.400
So I was just trying to find myself what I

42
00:02:00.400 --> 00:02:03.040
wanted to do. As a drummer and a backup vocalist

43
00:02:03.079 --> 00:02:04.920
in the band, I wasn't a lead vocalist. I wasn't

44
00:02:04.959 --> 00:02:07.719
a front man or whatever, and so I had to

45
00:02:07.799 --> 00:02:09.400
learn how to be confident as a lead singer. And

46
00:02:09.439 --> 00:02:12.240
so there was a lot of like steps to get there.

47
00:02:12.639 --> 00:02:15.199
But I finally got confident enough to get up in

48
00:02:15.199 --> 00:02:18.719
front of a stage and be in front, and I

49
00:02:18.800 --> 00:02:21.039
kind of just did all genres, and so I went

50
00:02:21.080 --> 00:02:22.719
back to rock because rock I feel like rocks in

51
00:02:22.759 --> 00:02:25.759
my blood and that's just what fits for me. And

52
00:02:25.879 --> 00:02:29.000
I played shows and found a good team. I just

53
00:02:29.039 --> 00:02:31.800
recently signed to Atlantic, and I just recently got a

54
00:02:31.840 --> 00:02:34.759
new manager, Kyle Hewlett, who's been helping me a lot.

55
00:02:34.800 --> 00:02:37.479
And yeah, I just played Warped tour. I just did

56
00:02:37.520 --> 00:02:40.520
a couple of headline shows and yeah, we got lout

57
00:02:40.599 --> 00:02:43.400
in life and I was so like beyond excited to

58
00:02:43.400 --> 00:02:44.240
play this festival.

59
00:02:44.360 --> 00:02:47.240
So and so I don't know if you know this,

60
00:02:47.400 --> 00:02:51.280
but two days ago this was called the number one

61
00:02:51.719 --> 00:02:54.120
rock festival in the country.

62
00:02:54.240 --> 00:02:55.599
Wow. I did not know that.

63
00:02:55.960 --> 00:02:56.919
So there you go.

64
00:02:57.039 --> 00:02:59.840
Wow, I'm very honored and blessed to be able to

65
00:03:00.080 --> 00:03:02.000
play this festival. That's crazy. Wow.

66
00:03:02.400 --> 00:03:04.960
How about how do you feel? I asked this all

67
00:03:05.000 --> 00:03:08.759
the time. Danny Wimmer treats the artists at these festivals.

68
00:03:08.800 --> 00:03:11.240
I think it's this is my first Danny womer uscial,

69
00:03:11.400 --> 00:03:13.240
So this is for me. I met him earlier. I

70
00:03:13.240 --> 00:03:15.199
think he's super sweet. He actually watched my set, which

71
00:03:15.199 --> 00:03:16.759
I thought was incredible. Way, so I was trying to

72
00:03:16.759 --> 00:03:18.639
impress him a little bit. I was like, that is

73
00:03:19.919 --> 00:03:22.680
set for sure. So it was dope. And I think

74
00:03:22.800 --> 00:03:25.360
the way things are organized, I think is so amazing,

75
00:03:25.400 --> 00:03:27.560
and like I love the acts and everyone is so

76
00:03:27.639 --> 00:03:30.080
talented and so good and I would love to do more.

77
00:03:30.199 --> 00:03:33.800
This is awesome, nice and Okay, So you drum and

78
00:03:33.840 --> 00:03:36.680
you sing, I do. I don't even know how you

79
00:03:36.759 --> 00:03:38.960
do that because I played drums for nine years and

80
00:03:39.039 --> 00:03:40.960
I sucked, and there's no way I would have been

81
00:03:41.240 --> 00:03:44.840
able to sing at the same time. Or Yeah, it's

82
00:03:44.919 --> 00:03:48.639
like two different personalities or two different things going on.

83
00:03:48.840 --> 00:03:50.960
I think I've just been playing drums for a long time,

84
00:03:51.039 --> 00:03:53.039
so drums feels like secondhand to me a little bit,

85
00:03:53.080 --> 00:03:55.439
and so I kind of could just play and then

86
00:03:55.479 --> 00:03:57.759
do other stuff or like talk or sing or whatever.

87
00:03:57.960 --> 00:03:59.479
So that's pretty cool.

88
00:03:59.560 --> 00:04:03.719
Yeah, So what inspired you to play drums and what

89
00:04:03.919 --> 00:04:04.960
inspired you to sing?

90
00:04:05.479 --> 00:04:06.960
When it comes to playing drums, I got my first

91
00:04:07.039 --> 00:04:08.719
kit when I was three years old, so I think

92
00:04:08.759 --> 00:04:11.280
I just wanted to bang on shit and just get

93
00:04:11.520 --> 00:04:13.639
aggression out. I don't know, I was a very like

94
00:04:14.039 --> 00:04:17.199
crazy wild kid. So drums just I gravitate towards them,

95
00:04:17.240 --> 00:04:20.519
and I've always played them and when it comes to

96
00:04:20.560 --> 00:04:22.879
singing and writing, I feel like writing is like my

97
00:04:22.920 --> 00:04:25.560
first love and I love writing music and it's like

98
00:04:25.560 --> 00:04:27.720
a form of my own therapy. So I think I

99
00:04:27.759 --> 00:04:30.120
just combined the two together. And Yeah, once my band

100
00:04:30.120 --> 00:04:31.240
broke up, I was like, I don't know what to

101
00:04:31.240 --> 00:04:34.480
do because there's no lead singer. I don't know melodic instruments.

102
00:04:34.480 --> 00:04:36.800
I can't just drum and sing. So I taught myself

103
00:04:36.839 --> 00:04:38.399
kind of how to produce, and I started working with

104
00:04:38.639 --> 00:04:40.240
producers and figuring that out.

105
00:04:40.279 --> 00:04:43.240
But yeah, and look, it's kind of like, as bad

106
00:04:43.240 --> 00:04:45.439
as it sounds, probably the best thing that ever happened.

107
00:04:45.439 --> 00:04:49.040
You were forced into for sure, just doing what you

108
00:04:49.240 --> 00:04:51.800
wanted to do, Yeah, without any feared because you had

109
00:04:51.800 --> 00:04:52.680
no other choice.

110
00:04:52.800 --> 00:04:54.959
I had, There's no other option. I love music so

111
00:04:55.040 --> 00:04:56.680
much I don't think I could stop doing it.

112
00:04:56.759 --> 00:04:59.839
So what other passions do you have outside of me?

113
00:05:01.360 --> 00:05:03.399
Literally I want to try and think of something, but

114
00:05:03.439 --> 00:05:06.279
I can't because all I do is music, and all

115
00:05:06.279 --> 00:05:07.680
I do is listen to music. So I would say,

116
00:05:07.680 --> 00:05:09.519
like my other passions like listening to music and like

117
00:05:09.560 --> 00:05:12.120
finding artists I like and stuff. I also edit my

118
00:05:12.160 --> 00:05:14.160
own videos, so I have another passion is like my

119
00:05:14.279 --> 00:05:17.040
music videos and filming and stuff. So I do find

120
00:05:17.480 --> 00:05:19.480
joy in doing that. So all the content I posts

121
00:05:19.519 --> 00:05:21.319
I edit in color grade and film at all.

122
00:05:21.399 --> 00:05:22.279
So it's nice.

123
00:05:22.480 --> 00:05:22.720
Yeah.

124
00:05:22.800 --> 00:05:25.079
Is there artists you want to see here at Louder

125
00:05:25.120 --> 00:05:25.720
Than Life?

126
00:05:26.040 --> 00:05:28.600
Yes? I really want to see Evanescence and I really

127
00:05:28.600 --> 00:05:31.879
want to see Suicide Boys. Yeah. So those are the

128
00:05:31.959 --> 00:05:34.000
two main ones I need to go see tonight.

129
00:05:34.160 --> 00:05:34.639
I love it.

130
00:05:34.839 --> 00:05:35.319
Yeah.

131
00:05:35.360 --> 00:05:38.800
And so what do you got going on after Louder

132
00:05:38.839 --> 00:05:39.439
than Life?

133
00:05:39.800 --> 00:05:42.199
After a lot of life? I am going on tour

134
00:05:42.279 --> 00:05:45.839
with Ceither, Daughtry and Pod in the Fall. Yeah, that's

135
00:05:45.879 --> 00:05:48.000
so pretty cool. I know, I'm so excited. These are

136
00:05:48.000 --> 00:05:51.720
like legends. I grew up listening to them, especially all

137
00:05:51.720 --> 00:05:54.519
of them, But there was one specific song Pod did

138
00:05:54.680 --> 00:05:56.879
the Youth of the Nation or Youth of the Nation. Yeah,

139
00:05:56.920 --> 00:05:59.199
and that song like changed my mind when I was

140
00:05:59.199 --> 00:06:00.360
a kid. I think I listened to when I was

141
00:06:00.399 --> 00:06:02.560
like ten for the first time. My dad would always

142
00:06:02.600 --> 00:06:05.319
play them, and that song made me like, well, I

143
00:06:05.319 --> 00:06:07.199
would listen to it and cry on repeating. I was like,

144
00:06:07.199 --> 00:06:08.680
the world is so fucked up and I just want

145
00:06:08.680 --> 00:06:12.000
to help the world, and like that song encouraged me

146
00:06:12.079 --> 00:06:15.079
to write music that would help people, honestly, So touring

147
00:06:15.120 --> 00:06:17.240
with them is like full circle moment for me a

148
00:06:17.240 --> 00:06:19.879
little bit. Chris Daughtry is super dope. We've been like

149
00:06:19.879 --> 00:06:22.680
connecting on Instagram and stuff before the tour. Before he

150
00:06:22.720 --> 00:06:24.439
asked me the tour with him, and so when he

151
00:06:24.480 --> 00:06:26.000
asked me, I was like, yes, one hundred percent. I

152
00:06:26.000 --> 00:06:27.680
don't have to I don't have to read anything. I'm down.

153
00:06:27.759 --> 00:06:29.920
Let's go, Like, let's go. I was just so excited.

154
00:06:30.319 --> 00:06:30.839
I love it.

155
00:06:30.920 --> 00:06:33.560
I love it, And you said therapy before, which is

156
00:06:33.600 --> 00:06:35.240
a big thing I talk about all the time. It

157
00:06:35.319 --> 00:06:38.439
is like, I love to me, music is the best

158
00:06:38.480 --> 00:06:41.399
therapy in the world for you, the artists and me.

159
00:06:41.519 --> 00:06:43.720
To listen, yes, I agree.

160
00:06:43.439 --> 00:06:47.279
And if you're a really good songwriter, I put my

161
00:06:47.439 --> 00:06:49.399
meme to it, you have your meme to it, and

162
00:06:49.439 --> 00:06:52.759
we can all like just be us and get that

163
00:06:52.800 --> 00:06:53.879
therapy out of music.

164
00:06:54.079 --> 00:06:56.519
The best thing I keep my songs pretty universal. When

165
00:06:56.560 --> 00:06:58.759
I write, I make it to where anyone can relate

166
00:06:58.800 --> 00:07:01.079
to it. Let's say I just wrote called Candy and

167
00:07:01.120 --> 00:07:03.040
it was about a breakup I recently went through. But

168
00:07:03.079 --> 00:07:06.519
I wrote it I feel like so broad and not

169
00:07:06.639 --> 00:07:08.279
so on the nose to where other people can relate

170
00:07:08.319 --> 00:07:09.759
to it. I've had multiple people come up to me

171
00:07:09.759 --> 00:07:11.720
and be like, that's not helping through my breakup and

172
00:07:11.720 --> 00:07:13.680
all this stuff, and I'm like, that's amazing, or like

173
00:07:13.680 --> 00:07:15.639
it help me through like a relationship or a friendship,

174
00:07:15.680 --> 00:07:18.519
breakup or whatever. And so it's so beautiful that like

175
00:07:18.720 --> 00:07:21.399
I was able to heal those people, like the EP

176
00:07:21.519 --> 00:07:23.600
healed me, like writing the sing the EP healed me,

177
00:07:24.000 --> 00:07:26.279
and then releasing it I released for other people. So

178
00:07:26.519 --> 00:07:28.040
my whole thing is like here the world like that's

179
00:07:28.079 --> 00:07:29.920
my brand, my love. I love it. Yeah.

180
00:07:30.199 --> 00:07:33.759
Yeah, I actually have a solution to all the world's problems.

181
00:07:33.839 --> 00:07:34.319
What is that?

182
00:07:34.360 --> 00:07:36.839
I'm not kidding. Yeah, I think we need to have

183
00:07:37.160 --> 00:07:42.800
one big music festival every genre, everybody is required to

184
00:07:42.879 --> 00:07:48.120
go and except the people that want to divide us,

185
00:07:49.319 --> 00:07:52.519
and we all unite with music and woodstock.

186
00:07:52.560 --> 00:07:56.639
Shit right, bigger, but bigger. I'm so cry the world's

187
00:07:56.720 --> 00:07:59.959
more fucked up right now? I agree. Well, let me

188
00:08:00.120 --> 00:08:01.759
you know when we can do that, and I'll be

189
00:08:01.800 --> 00:08:04.399
there and I'll play. Let's do that. I'm down.

190
00:08:05.000 --> 00:08:08.000
So tell people how they can connect you on socials

191
00:08:08.079 --> 00:08:11.319

that we haven't covered already?

201
00:08:38.120 --> 00:08:41.480

202
00:08:44.519 --> 00:08:47.039
it's very live and it needs to stay alive, so
