Who will perform at the Global Citizen Festival, appear in Rolling Stone, and take home $50,000?
Who or what is your musical inspiration?
For writing concept albums that tell fantastic stories with appropriate harmonic layering, I would say that my major influence is The Who. My inspiration, however, is my late great-grandmother who was a savant in her own right.
