Speaker 11: How long have you been? How long have you been doing that? So have you been?

Speaker 3: No?

Speaker 10: I have been playing.

Speaker 12: So I started playing guitar when I was seven years old. My uncle got me an electric electric guitar, so I was playing you know Metallica, Iron Maiden, you know all the Megadeath, you know Green Day. And then when I was freshman in high school, I had to do a guitar class, so I had to get an acoustic guitar because I didn't have enough for all the kids. So sure I had to go buy one, got one, never looked back.

Speaker 2: Yeah.

Speaker 12: So I've been playing since I was like seven, and I've been doing like full time gigging for about a little over ten years.

Speaker 11: Oh, excellent, excellent. Wow. Where are you from?

Speaker 7: Uh? So?

Speaker 12: I was born in Lawrence, Massachusetts. Okay, moved to Nashville when I was about six years old. So I've been in Nashville since about two thousand and two thousand and one.

Speaker 11: Okay, okay, now how did you how did you when when you were starting out? I mean, did you always do a solo acoustic thing or did you play a band?

Speaker 12: An I've always done solo acoustic.

Speaker 8: Yeah.

Speaker 12: Over the years, now that I've been doing it for a while, I've been trying to work more with like, you know, bands and like get up on stage with bands and as far as that goes. But yeah, I usually just do it solo.

Speaker 11: It's easier, right, I mean it's you know, you don't depend on anybody else for yeah, their availability and in terms of rehearsing and playing shows and.

Speaker 12: All that exactly exactly. It's it's a it's a little bit it's a little bit easier to go about a business wise.

Speaker 11: Yeah, yeah, no doubt.

Speaker 12: Do you do covers as well or I do do covers as well?

Speaker 2: Yeah?

Speaker 13: I do.

Speaker 12: I do mostly covers even at all my shows. Yeah, Like I said, this is the first EP I have coming out, So these are my first original songs that I have. Yeah, and so I mostly do covers and things like that.

Speaker 11: Yeah, how many originals do you have at this point? Would you say? I mean, can you even put a number on how many songs you have.

Speaker 12: I have about like six or seven okay, okay, I said, I rarely just started writing about maybe a year or two ago, okay, and moved back into you know, my parents and stuff, and yeah, my dad's been helping me a lot with you know, the writing, and oh good help me put together the music and things like that.

Speaker 11: What is it that motivated you to want to start writing.

Speaker 12: I'd really just want to get my own music out there. I mean, I play, I do all the covers, I play live full time, and you know the next step is to get onto my own stage. Yea, hopefully you know what I mean, and have people come and see my music. Yeah, yeah, exactly, you know, put music out there that you know, can help people along the way. And yeah, the ways that music's held me along the way.

Speaker 5: You know.

Speaker 11: You want to play another one? Yeah, of course, yeah, yeah, if you're just joining us. Stephen Cures saying it right, yep, is he is here with us in in studio sounded amazing.

There's a lot of things I can give them, and there's a lot of ways to die. Yes, since I'm ready there to walk sid me, and there's a lot of things I don't understand why so many people lie.

Speaker 18: Let's hurt you donfuse the fir inside.

Speaker 10: Me will always feel this way.

Speaker 16: So see So quss.

Speaker 11: Changed Steven Deckure here with us live in studio. That was that was amazing. That was a ray Lemming I can't say his name either. Song that was gorgeous. Yeah, that was a beautiful That was really good. That was really good. So much is is there anyone that you covered that you found challenging to do, like vocally.

Speaker 12: Or Steely Dan Amy Winehouse really yeh yeah. Vocally they're pretty challenging. I mean some of the new Benson Boone songs that I've been working on challenging as well.

Speaker 11: Now, what is it about so somebody like I'm curious that somebody like Seely Dan for example, What what is it that's that's challenging about that?

Speaker 12: Oh my god, they are such nerds when I comes to the musicality of it. Yeah, pronunciation of when when you know you're singing, And I mean Michael McDonald did an interview about how when he was recording PEG with Donald Fagan, Yeah, and how he was very so what I'm looking for. He wanted it perfectly. He wanted it perfectly every single time. So this pronunciation with his words, how he was pronunciating it, I was singing it everything. It took him like seventeen to eighteen takes non do the harmonies on PEG or whatever he goes.

Speaker 12: It was one of the hardest things I've ever read to do.

Speaker 10: Oh wow wow.

Speaker 12: Yeah.

Speaker 11: Is it important to you when when you do these covers? Is it important to you to sing them as closely as possible to the original.

Speaker 12: I like to bring a justice but also make it my own. Yeah, give it my own twist on it in a way, so it's not oh hey, he's just you know, like the other everybody else the run of the mill, right right, Yeah, stand out a little bit.

Speaker 11: So yeah, no doubt, no doubt. What are do you have a favorite? Like, do you have a favorite cover that you do? Is there one that really kind of stands out of something to every show?

Speaker 12: I just I went over this, I get this question, actually asked a lot. Yeah, it's hard to say. I have like almost two hundred songs that I play off to on my head, so yeah, it's hard to like pick and choose. It's usually ones that like I'm like just learning or you know what i mean, just getting out there to play. Yeah, as of lately, it's been NOA Kn's Dial Drunk. I really enjoying playing that one out lately.

Speaker 10: Yeah.

Speaker 12: Yeah, it kind of always fluctuates for me.

Speaker 19: Yeah.

Speaker 22: Yeah.

Speaker 11: What's the longest show you've done?

Speaker 7: Oh?

Speaker 12: Man, the longest show I've done I think was like seven and a half hours.

Speaker 11: Oh my god. Okay, tell me about a way seven and a half hours.

Speaker 12: Yeah, it was a private pool party.

Speaker 11: Because usually when I ask people this question, I'll get like, oh, you know, we did a five hours, like seven and a half.

Speaker 12: Yeah, yeah yeah. So so like I did like a lot of like the shows like l Street Tavern last year, and yeah, there was a couple of times like that. I had to do both of the shows because one of the guys canceled. Yeah, so I had to go in there early, play from like three to three thirty to seven thirty, then play seven thirty to midnight or wow, yeah it's rough. It's rough. Yeah, yeah, but why we do it? You know what I mean?

Speaker 11: When you do something like that? Do you do anything special for your voice too?

Speaker 12: Like I really just drink tea and lemons. Oh that's really all I do unesportually. I didn't drink any today. I was running late this week.

Speaker 11: Oh you sound great? Now, you sound great? And yeah, but pretty unusual to sing this early, probably right, it is for me.

Speaker 12: Usually usually I'm waking up at like three really yeah yeah, getting ready to go to work at six.

Speaker 11: Yeah, there you go, there you go.

Speaker 19: Yep.

Speaker 11: So and as far as playing, I mean, obviously, with what you do you're able to play, you know, you can play just about anywhere, but just about like do you get out of do you get out of New England much?

Speaker 12: Or do you kind of stick to I Actually I haven't played. I play in Massachusetts a lot. Yeah, do like Brownies Pub. I usually do Muddy Waters. Is that that's in Methune as well. Oh okay, yeah, and then a few other places that I've played, But other than that, I usually stay in New Hampshire.

Speaker 11: No kidding. Yeah, yeah, well, yeah, I mean it's remarkable with you do a lot of breweries. I assume I do a lot of breweries.

Speaker 12: I do, So I work with not so costly productions.

He used to have big world productions here in New Hampshire and so he was he was putting on shows around New England and he did a bunch of shows with her. But yeah, that's that's how I met her.

Speaker 11: And yeah, she was fantastic.

She started that indie label at a time where like like today, it's not even a big deal, right because of the Internet, anybody can can start a lab, you know, ut right, But she but she did it at a time when it was unusual, and you know, I I know she's talked in interviews about how, you know, she faced a lot of headwinds doing that.

Speaker 11: People didn't necessarily believe in her, give her a chance.

Speaker 12: They were like, I think she's done a lot for the women of the you know.

Speaker 11: Yeah, oh totally absolutely, Yeah, yeah, because I remember one interview I read with her, she was saying, like, you know, people just looked at her like, who is this chick who thinks she can do this?

Speaker 13: You know?

Speaker 11: But but she was determined to do it, and she did it.

Speaker 12: Give somebody an opportunity if they have the drive in the hunger, they'll they'll make it happen.
