Artist Biography
In the artist’s words:
Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. My earliest core musical memory is my father taking me into my first drum lesson at a local music store when I was 10 years old.
What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Ahmad Jamal Trio, Ahmad Jamal At The Pershing: But Not for Me Little Dragon, Little Dragon Stevie Wonder, Songs in the Key of Life These three albums have and still continue to have a huge influence on the music that I make. Their approaches towards songwriting, ensemble playing, and the use of textures are all points of inspiration.
Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “Mind Your Heart (feat. Katie Ernst & Julius Tucker)” "Mind Your Heart" is the first song that I've ever released. It deals with the constant battle between our rationale (mind) and our emotions (heart).
What’s one of the most memorable moments in your career so far? One of my most memorable moments was getting to work on The Social Experiment's 2015 album, SURF. The project featured artist such as Chance the Rapper, J. Cole, and Erykah Badu.
Is there anything left on your bucket list as an artist or band? In addition to one day doing a world tour with my band, the Alvin Cobb, Jr. Trio, I would love to collaborate in some way with Yukimi Nagano from one of my favorite bands, Little Dragon.
