He creates music to match his mood

“When I create music, it’s really about how I’m feeling on that particular day. I could be mad, sad or excited. I could have something on my chest, and I just need to vent.

“There’s a song on my third album called ‘Alone.’ The concept is about depression and how it can take over your state of mind. Through the years, I’ve had friends that have passed away due to depression or some other tragic event. At the start of the song I sing, ‘Man, this place is all I know. But why do I feel so alone?’ Then I realize if depression has taken my friends, does that mean I’m next? Later on in the song I say, ‘I try to find myself by the end of the night. So maybe that’s why my dreams are black and white.’ In dreams, that symbolizes there is something missing from your life that is part of you — the color, or in this case, loved ones.

“Overall, when people hear my songs, I want them to be able to relate in some way. A lot of people said ‘Alone’ reminded them of a loved one they lost as well.”
