In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. When I began my singing career one of my first ambitions was to headline my own concert performances. What I did not expect for my first theatre show was a full house, standing room only. I knew at that moment, a career in music would be my destiny. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Bradley Cooper, Lady Gaga, A Star Is Born Soundtrack Eva Cassidy, The Best of Eva Cassidy k.d. lang, Hymns of the 49th Parallel Hymns of the 49th Parallel - is poetry set to music, beginning to end. A Star is Born - to me, is almost the perfect soundtrack album. I love singing along to this album on road trips. The Best of Eva Cassidy - A pure angelic voice and gone to soon. Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Long Long Time” My cover version of the song and video for Long Long Time seems to have resonated with many listeners from different generations. Who knew that HBO's Last Of Us series would bring me unexpected attention for my version as well, which I am grateful! What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? These memorable moments are being made at this time as my music is now reaching an international audience, with new followers and fans discovering my songs and videos daily. I am enjoying watching this part of my musical journey, the most. Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? Yes, plenty! More songs to record, albums to release and performances to give. I feel like I am entering a new stage in my career and excited about what comes next.
