What ’ s the story behind ‘ Hold the Phone ’ and how did it end up on BBC Radio 1? It was a great feeling! I Snapped the whole experience! I was in a thrift store in Kensington Market, a neighborhood in Toronto.
It wasn ’ t until this past year that I heard myself on the radio. It was a song that was comprised of all the black keys and had a faint construction of a melody but was tweaked minimally every time, due to my lack of understanding of which note was which.Īnd then, after a few years, how did you feel the first time you heard one of your songs on radio for the first time? Yes, I had an improvisational piece, which I dedicated to my aunt who had just passed. I loved the sounds that I could create with it, though I wasn ’ t very amused by my lessons in my early years, but stuck to the instrument and improvised on it whenever I had the chance.ĭo you remember some of the early compositions that you created when you started in music? What was your first impression of a piano the first time you were in front of one? However, it wasn ’ t until I moved to New Jersey and was paired with a new teacher, who made learning fun, as well as a lot of time spent in the car listening to music, that I really made a concerted effort at being a musician. I took piano lessons at a young age and was fond of singing. Whether the memory is of a conversation, a relationship or something I witnessed on the street, I let that settle in for a while and it inspires me to write and consequently it allows me to move on. Well I guess I get stuck on things from my past and that manifests itself in my songs. You put so much sentiment into your songwriting! How do you get inspired to write those epic lyrics?
