WINTER 2013
you can do well with it. But I think if you just want to be famous, then it’s not the right thing. But yeah I think it’s okay. I don’t really watch them though. A: How do you think you’ve changed from when you came onto the scene through Idol to now? B: I’m only 22 now but I was 17 then so that’s pretty young and I wasn’t really sure of anything and you know, it was an experience. I was a but confused because I got pushed in a lot of directions that I wasn’t too sure of and coming out of the show, I wasn’t discouraged with music, because I loved music I just kind of took the time to decide, well not really decide, but to let whatever came naturally to come naturally and just kind of learn about music a little bit more and be a bit stronger and I think it pushed me to do that faster A: You’ve got the tour coming up as well in May, what can we expect from the tour, are you excited about that coming up? B: I am excited, I think its going to be a lot different and a lot more fun. There’s three synths on stage so that’ll be exciting for me, no guitars. It will be high energy and you know, I’ve tried to think about the night and picked the supports accordingly. I love Collarbones, I think they’re really fun. I think they’ll get the night really vibing, and Mammals are first, electronic but still a bit atmospheric. I think it’s going to be exciting, well it’ll be exciting for me because its refreshing playing new songs and to gage what songs are really resonating, so I think its going to be exciting for me, if not anyone else. A: What are your plans for after the tour? B: I’m going to head overseas either by the end of the year or the start of next year and I definitely want to get started on another project, I don’t know if I want to get started on another album because it takes a long time for me as I’m a bit of a perfectionist, maybe just something like a little project. I just want to be creative again.
