"I’ve always been drawn to the soul of classic rock—bands like Fleetwood Mac, Heart, and Janis Joplin really lit that fire for me. But I also pull inspiration from modern storytellers like Florence and the machine and Amy Winehouse. I love music that makes you feel something real—gritty, honest, and timeless."
How would performing at the Global Citizen Festival impact your career?
"Performing at the Global Citizen Festival would be life-changing—not just for the exposure, but for what it stands for. I’ve always believed music should have a purpose beyond entertainment. To share my voice on a stage that fights for equality, justice, and change—that would mean everything. It’s a chance to turn passion into impact, and that’s the dream."
What would you do with $50,000?
"If I won the $50,000 grand prize, I’d pour it right back into the music. I’d invest in recording an album that truly captures my voice and message, take my band on tour to connect with people face-to-face, and support causes close to my heart—especially youth music programs. It’s not just about a career—it’s about using this gift to lift others up."
