Who will perform at the Global Citizen Festival, appear in Rolling Stone, and take home $50,000?
Who or what is your musical inspiration?
AC/DC. I heard the Back In Black album when I was young and haven't put down the guitar since
How would performing at the Global Citizen Festival impact your career?
Performing isn’t just a career move — it’s my lifeline. It lets me turn my struggles into sound, pain into power, and build a community where people who face adversity are not alone. Together we'll prove that resilience rocks louder than anything life throws at you. Every time I hit the stage, it’s about more than music — it’s about meaning.
What would you do with $50,000?
I’d take rock back to the people who need it most. Small towns, forgotten stages, people fighting battles of their own. Music saved me, I want to pay that forward.
